Sad

I didnt expect this result. 2-0. Maybe 1-0 but no 2-0. From the start, i knew Liverpool would have problems. Man U was too good for them. Frankly. The passing, the one-twos. Even the defending. Ferdinand was exceptionally good. The defence was never complacent. That was the main point.

Their midfield held the ball well. Whenever they lost the ball, almost all of them would run back to retrieve it. Liverpool was playing defensive most of the time. And tried to lauch counter attacks but really, Man U was too good. They did not let Liverpool any space at all. Alonso and Gerrard cant shoot in peace from long range. There was no space!

I praise Giggs and Scholes. They were the sparks on the field. Even though the Scholes goal was crap, he did well overall. Honestly, each time Utd attacked, i just wondered was it going end up as a goal? Whenever Liverpool attack (did they?), i knew it would not end up as a goal. Why? Because Utd was too good.

Sissoko did well.
Alonso not too good.
Carragher was outstanding.
Gerrard average.
Reina was pretty good.
Kuyt was isolated with the lack of service as lone striker.
Garcia was crap.

Liverpool need someone to dribble, someone to be more creative, someone to hold the ball. Just like what slayers need...
