They've won it already. As soon as Arteta scored, Fergie will have cracked open the Champers

Hopefully not, but it was a big result, a few long time blues i know said their &rses had gone a couple of weeks back, United still have a job to do, United have made their lives difficult in seemingly [ieasier[/i fixtures this season notably repeatedly in europe, fingers crossed they don't think the job is done and they just have to go through the motions

Any Tom Dick or Harry knows that you can't express an opinion on Hillsbrough unless it matches the opinion of the Liverpool faithful. To disagree with them when you're a public figure is career suicide....

Not really, most people can be sensible, but let's be honest, look at Davies' comments, they are hardly 'disagreeing'. They're quite vile and insensitive with the clear aim to provoke. If you think Liverpool should play on the 15th regardless, then that is absolutely fine, but do you have to aim for the rise with every point debated? Do you have to approach it sarcastically?

Me personally, I can understand why the club wouldn't want to play on that day. Different clubs and different people have their ways of dealing with things. Just recently, Bolton postponed their game after Muamba nearly died on the pitch, another club might have got on with it and played that game against Aston Villa. It's just ways of dealing with things and just because other clubs do things differently, doesn't mean to say one club is right and one club is wrong.

I do think it is only right that Liverpool do play on the Saturday.

But I do object to Dalglish's "we're not playing on the 15th, we never have and we never will" statement. It isn't up to LFC to dictate when they play, but that is exactly how it came across.

Kenny probably feels so strongly about it because he went through an awful lot at the time, it's well known how much it affected him and, although it may come across as him trying to dictate when we play, I actually feel it's just his overwhelming feelings coming through, rather than an arrogance/power problem.

Liverpool always get their way. The FA would change the rules rather than risking upsetting them like they always do.

Brave stuff from Jonathan Wilson on [url=http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/apr/10/the-question-steven-gerrard-liverpool?CMP=twt_guStevie Me[/url

that stat about lucas probably highlights a problem

Not really, I've read similar stuff for years on Gerrard. The key line in that entire piece is the very last line, and it sort of makes Wilson's piece pointless.

Gerrard, as we all know, is a fantastic player who's matured into an outstanding attacking midfielder over the years. The absences of Lucas and Daniel Agger have been far more detrimental to our form than the return of Gerrard. For me, we should have done with Gerrard what Roma done with Totti, moved him further and further up field as his legs begin to go. Rafa used to play him exclusively as an attacking midfielder behind Torres, he should never have been brought back into the midfield. However, the problem for me still remains the other players, when you watch us play, Gerrard isn't playing poorly, but Henderson is, Adam was and the defence remains a shambles. I don't think our form and current performances are a true reflection of our side, but they are a reflection of the majority of our 2011 signings, that, to be frank, are embarrassing.

I would love to hear your opinion on Jay Spearing Roddy? What does he bring to Liverpool?
