Best tell Murt that then. :)
 
Well played United, sounds like the players tried their best, but really we should be beating Villa at home. <img src="graemlins/devil.gif" border="0" alt="[Devil]" />
 
At least we didn't lose like Arsenal, and Forlan eventually got his goal. Close 1pt on Arsenal, but Liverpool go another 2pts clear. Seems Arsenal have bottled it.
 
Pathetic that I actually feel releived we did not lose. We need Keano back and Ruud up front - we will be crap until then.

Dippers 8 points ahead of us. Not good.

Tried their best? For how many odd minutes? :mad:
 
1-1 another two points lost, another drab and sad performance it seems - and we are further away from the top. time to start thinking seriously if we can actually play decent football and challenge for the league <img src="confused.gif" border="0">
 
Arsenal only makes a few slip ups and right when we had the chance to gain on them we do that by doing 2 draws against mid table teams. Just great. Damn I'm getting depressed.

no complains tho' the players look lethargic (sp?) especially after the euro game... just think of a point win rather than 2 points lost....

there must be something more than just injuries in it.
we were as crap when they were playing.
every mediocre team feel that they can get something from OT, while in the past they lost before kick-off.
 
Well let's look at things this way.

When Liverpool and Arsenal play each other, either Liverpool will drop points - or Arsenal will drop even more.

That cheers me up.

Yes, I've noticed that there are always more people on the forum after a defeat than after a win...It seems that some people only come here to criticize... :rolleyes:

And remember, Liverpool were 15 points ahead of us last season in December with a game in hand (18 potential points), and look what happened then!
