Geez, talk about crossbars. Liverpool saved by the crossbar twice and gets 2 own goals to finally beat QPR. What crazy luck they've got today

Liverpool are so fucking jammy at times. The self pity cunts were useless throughout the game and their best players were the crossbar, Richard Dunne and Stephen Caulker. Balotelli is utter fucking shit as well. If I was a Liverpool fan I'd be furious with him. He's a self indulgent twat who's in it for himself. Strolls around the park and throws his arms around while contributing fuck all to the team. Why the British media celebrate twats like him as some charismatic genius sums them up. A truly disgraceful footballer who's personality is as boring as his footballing ability.

That was a ridiculous game,how lucky can u get QPR so unlucky the dippers were average apart from one of their goals.Balotelli is a joke but on their performance today and overall I think they're shite.

Gary - what I dont get mate is why people generally think the dippers will be anywhere near top 4 their gash carried by Suarez, utter pants, I'll be fuming if we don't do the double over them, I got banned off a Manchester.v Liverpool banter site today for posting an Italian flag with the words justice for the 39 in reference ti heystsl, it's never their fault apparently, utter cunts!

Tommy, I think we all knew they were going to badly miss Suarez. It's not just the goals and talent that he brought to the table. He lifted the rest of their team by simply being on the pitch. They've of coursed missed Sturridge as well, but last season a lot went their way and they made the most of it with the front three of Sterling, Sturridge and Suarez playing out their skins. They were never going to replicate the form of last season.

Yea that doesn't surprise me in reference to the Heysel post. What happened at both Hillsbrough and Heysel were absolutely awful. You would expect of course Liverpool as a club to remember their supporters and the families affected by Hillsbrough and any decent human can only sympathise. But the way they conveniently ignore the Heysel disaster shows how self absorbed they are within themselves.

I expect a tough game when we play them as it normally is. They'll raise their game for us and I expect us to do the bloody same. After last season's limp displays against all our North west rivals the players have a duty to restore some pride to the club and supporters. Expect to see nothing short of 100% commitment when we play the scouse shite. We owe them big time after last season.

Gary - theyll be no were near top 4, even sturidge really isn't that food, without Suarez their bobnins as out friend Ray from the red devills video woyld say, of course theyll raise their game, and if we don't give 100% them heads will roll, its 2 days after my birthday, si they'd better not ruin it for me, on Hillsboro it gets stuffed in our faces every day mate, as all the locals would say, every day on granada reports they cant help but mention it, every fuckin day, I sympathize I really do but every day? Even tbat poor fella Alan Henning gets no were near the same as this Hillsborough enquiry, of course it was all the police fault not theirs at all, I mean how come the crush happened? Too many people in one section, how come their was too many people? Because scousers pushed their way in, no of course it's not their fault, it never is, neither was heystsl mate, that's what theyll tell us

Gutted that Liverpool won today. I think their transfer business this summer has been bad. They have spent 120 millions and bought shit with that. I thought the reason they sold Suarez was because they didn't want trouble maker but then why did they buy another trouble maker balotelli. As much I hated Suarez I will say that man was a class player, but this balotelli is just plain shit. Liverpool missed the trick this summer. This was their chance to build to their successful campaign of last season but again they screwed.

Welbeck has proved to be a better buy for arsenal than balotelli for Liverpool. I hope Ronaldo tears them apart and Rodgers arrogance could come down to earth.

We got rid oh Berbatov because he apparently wasn't mobile enough, so why would we go for someone similiar with the added attitude problem? At least Berbatov had the skills to shout about. Balotelli only have the meat to show

Ask - ballatelli is awful, heskitelli he's been called in reference to a likeness to emile heskey lol, marq - I highly doubt we got rid of berba mate due to lack of mobility, we signed him at 27 years old,.pretty sure fergie knew about his mobility or in your opinion lack of it before signing him, he tried to get him at Bayer keverkuson so followed him for years, berba was signed because he was capable of.moments of quality others don't have, but unfortunately it was not as often he woyld produce those sparks, he's got arguably the best first touch I've ever seen though

Berba was a genius and the year of Rooneygate carried the front line superbly and no doubt got a raw deal and was sacrificed after Rooney signed the new contract
Year later Sir Alex decided to play Hernandez and Welbeck in front of Berba although nether had really good seasons and i've said this lots if Berba had played more we would have won the league.I really feel Berba was probably Sir Alex's biggest mismanagement of a player ever,and not being in the team for the CL final was very wrong

And to this day I believe Utd should have shipped Rooney out and not caved,we wouldn't have missed a beat with Berba as the main striker

Tommy,

Yes first to admit, looks like I did get the Mario one wrong . Still, you can't win 'em all, but just one would be nice.

I do like the bloke though. he does amuse me

It's hardly surprising that Own Goal gets two for Southampton on saturday,and is a Liverpool player on
sunday!

Berba's first touch alone is worth more than Balotelli, I would put him on raw talent up their with Messi and Scholes in regards to player's I've seen live, he was phenomenal.

@Wayne have to agree mate never could understand why Berba had to sit that out.He was a very clever player didn't suit Fergies game at the time I suppose.

Mark he was our top goal scorer should've at least been on the bench as it turned out what we really lacked in the game was a player who could hold up the ball and bring others into the game,Owen getting selected over him was just wrong and the season after when Danny and Hernandez were getting selected a head of him although both weren't playing very well and nether even close to what Berba brought to a team never made any sense to me.

Berba should have all day started the final, not to put him on the bench was wrong, Hernandez was never gonna do fuck all drom the start, Sir Alex got that onw wrong im affraid but he is human I suppose
