Barclays Premier League Season 2009/2010

[wolfman1380]

Didn't think we'd get anything out of the Arsenal game and we did well for the most part but Arsenal prove they are the best footballing side in the UK for entertainment. Almunia should have saved our goal but like our keeper he has problems with crosses.

Got Chelsea next and serioously not looking forward to it :(

[idioot]

The best part about this victory is looking at the table and who is at #7 Hahahahah.

No, best part was Ferguson fuming again! He's hilarious! :laugh:

..or ridiculous rather.

LOL

Benitez is in a lot of trouble if Birmingham win, 2-1 to them at half time :o

[idioot]

And what a goal it was to give them the lead.

E: And then N'Gog "earned" Liverpool a penalty :p

To be fair I think he has a point this time, the referee 's performance indicates that he was a closet Chelsea fan. United where hard done by no doubting it.

2-2 from a rather fortuitous penalty, and applying the pressure, there's life in this one yet :D

[gregb0b]

Closet Chelsea fan? The better team won, it's as simple as that.

Is it your blind hate towards Chelsea or plain amnesia that is behind you forgetting Evans' foul on Drogba inside the box?

Nope, like usual Drogba dived for it. Like I stated before, Drogba spends so much time diving I think you Chelsea fans have forgotten what real injuries, and fouls are. The simple fact is, that 2 seriously poor decisions cost united a point, and I can assure you that as a Liverpool fan, times of me having any sympathy for man united are few and far between, but in this circumstance I feel they where hard done by. Debate it all you want, the goal shouldn't have been allowed to stand and that is a fact. Hell you guys where shouting loudly enough when you felt the ref 'robbed' you against Barcelona, but when that argument is turned on its head you guys simply can't accept it.

Matches aren't "lost" on the decisions on a whole, but the ones that lead to goal(s) and in that sense Man Utd were hard done by that free kick/then foul in box.

However you can't put all the blame on one/two decisions, we didn't finish our chances well.

The reason its slightly harder to take a one goal loss in this case is both teams played very evenly, and that only magnifies the decisions of the referee. If it was much more one sided it's easier to accept a defeat due to your team overall playing much poorly and not deserving anything, but I wouldn't say that was the case seeing as Chelsea have been destroying teams goal wise and Man Utd played without Vidic/Ferdinand. They held off well and gave Chelsea a good game.

It would've been much nicer to see a team finishing with a win without the drama :p

It's a worrying trend though, for me the standard of refereeing in the premier league is poor, and is something that desperately needs to be looked at.

How the **** didn't we win that...

[Subject Delta]

Simple answer to that one is lack of effective firepower

[WastedJoker]

How the **** didn't we win that...

Gerrard too injured to dive with his usual flair maybe?

[Kostaz]

Nope, like usual Drogba dived for it.

It was a crystal-clear red card for me,and although he was probably faking after the foul that doesn't make it any less than a foul.

Like I stated before, Drogba spends so much time diving

Agreed

I think you Chelsea fans have forgotten what real injuries, and fouls are.

Not really

The simple fact is, that 2 seriously poor decisions cost united a point,

And the penalty I mentioned earlier might have cost us a goal

and I can assure you that as a Liverpool fan, times of me having any sympathy for man united are few and far between, but in this circumstance I feel they where hard done by.

You've already said who you wanted to win,so your opinion on that matter is very biased.

Debate it all you want, the goal shouldn't have been allowed to stand and that is a fact.

I'm not so sure about that either,I didn't see Drogba being offside and it looked like he hauled Wes Brown down,but I think that Brown should have been stronger.

Hell you guys where shouting loudly enough when you felt the ref 'robbed' you against Barcelona, but when that argument is turned on its head you guys simply can't accept it.

You may have a point there but IMHO 3 penalties on a CL quarter final are much more important than a 2 fouls in any league game.

[Martyn]

Gerrard too injured to dive with his usual flair maybe?

Yeah lad, that was the reason. Gutted eh.

Nope, but it makes Drogba a playacting scumbag

You've already said who you wanted to win,so your opinion on that matter is very biased.

I have opinions on who I want to win most games, I guess by your logic I must be biased against everyone then? Your comments have shown you to be just as biased against Liverpool anyway, so it is just another hypocritical case of pot, kettle, black.

You are bound to say that, but the fact of the matter is that bad refereeing costing a side any form of result is unacceptable regardless of the occasion, and number of screwups, just your attempt to put a pro chelsea spin on something you really have no cogent argument against.

[Kostaz]

What does that have to do with it being a foul or not?

Yes,but in 2009 we have replays:

N'Gog dived brilliantly to earn the penalty for Liverpool.

Hadn't seen that yet, damn that's a bit of a dive :p

You gotta give the boy some credit,he puts to shame both Ronaldo and Drogba.

[Subject Delta]

What does that have to do with it being a foul or not?

Plenty. It is called unsportsmanlike conduct and it is against the rules of the game

Yes,but in 2009 we have replays:

And that is relative to your hypocritical rant about me being biased, when you are just as biased against Liverpool how?

Yep, that was pretty poor behaviour from N'Gog and the pen shouldn't have been given, no question about that, I just find it funny that Chelsea fans are throwing slurs at Liverpool when they have on their team one of the biggest divers in all forms of football (only one that can even touch Drogba for pathetic diving is Ronaldo). Difference is though I can be objective about it and face the fact that shouldn't have been given, some you win some you lose I guess.

You gotta give the boy some credit,he puts to shame both Ronaldo and Drogba.

Sure is. One incident against a whole career's worth (and then some in Drogba's case) for the 2 you mentioned. Seriously, you are more biased than I am, haven't you realised how hypocritical you sound yet?

[Kostaz]

And that is relative to your hypocritical rant about me being biased, when you are just as biased against Liverpool how?

Did I ever claim that I'm not?

[Subject Delta]

Nope, but you post with this 'holier than thou' attitude constantly throwing insults of Bias against me, when you are no better, if not worse yourself.

Seriously, you are just making yourself look silly.

Anyway I don't want to drag this offtopic again, so keep the discussions about the football please, I don't want to add more people to my ignore list alongside gregb0b, I try to keep that as a last resort, but I am starting to lose patience with you, and I am also losing interest in discussing football with you.

[Kostaz]

[...]

I was about to comment on what you said,but then again..

Why don't you discuss football in a Liverpool only forum?

Or even a forum where open Chelsea supporters get their IP banned?

I agree with this quote:

Liverpool FC. A disgusting club supported by disgusting fans and employing disgusting cheating players.

And I'm sure you'd agree with something like this :

Liverpool FCChelsea FC. A disgusting club supported by disgusting fans and employing disgusting cheating players.

So why don't we just agree that we're both biased as **** and wait till your team's next humiliation?

[Subject Delta]

So why don't we just agree that we're both biased as **** and wait till your team's next humiliation?

I am done debating with you, it is clearly a waste of my time as you obviously lack the intelligence to do anything apart from sitting there constantly flaming Liverpool fans. I also seriously object to your accusation that I think all Chelsea fans are scum, FYI my own mother supports Chelsea, but then I am not quiet as hate filled as you so I guess I don't really understand your position. Regardless, you are one more flame filled post away from being stuck onto my Ignore list so kindly stop the flaming please.

Edit: The ignore button has been used for the second time in less than 48 hours, time to resume talking about the football :) sorry folks
