He did get about though.
Rodgers post game on the Sturridge dive:
"He jumped to avoid the tackle, there was no contact made, but it wasn't a dive"
Ummmmm ok. It was Wenger-esque in its silliness.
Rooney is the only one on that team who had a go. Geez he's quality.
Liverpool thoroughly deserved it though.
Rooney and Carrick were both f*cking whinging bellends. Rooney goes apoplectic when he launched himself into Skrtel looking for a pen and rightly didnt get one.
Carrick gave what should have been a stonewall penalty but berated the ref anyway when it wasnt given. What was he going on about?
The dive for the pen was squared when Stevie missed it. We should have had that one as well as the one in the first half where Luis was clipped but tried to stay on his feet.
Rafael was an absolute liability for them, flying into tackles and should have been sent off with a second yellow for his handball that gave away the penalty. But then again, Flanno was doing the same thing for us so that evens out lol
De Gea made an absolutely world class save to deny Luis. Any other day we would have beaten them by 5 or 6. I can only remember United threatening our box maybe three times the entire game. RVP just wasnt interested.
