I think Carrick has been good to be honest, he's stoped a lot of their forward play.
Can see Liverpool winning this to be honest...lets hope they tire.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
It's the nerves James, the game means too much.
just give redknapp a slap micky
Don't think Fergie will change it for now. We are having good possession. Its going to be one of those games where the next goal does it to my mind...
I think it could be Giggs as it's a forward role which Scholesy hasn't been playing this season.
Liverpool aren't going to finish with eleven players on the pitch unless FSW subs Torres, Mascherano and Carragher
Torres is such a bitter wanker.
Kicking the penalty spot like that has to be one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. Grow up.
You have to give him credit for an original display of petulance, never seen that before.
y'all forget that Park does a lot of defending to
we will win this, scrappily though.
Owen only pundit talking sense. Redknapp and that other one don't like it.
Aye i'd leave Park on for now. Hopefully he finds his touch in the second half
Fletcher and Carrick can handle that. Nobody is supporting Rooney at the moment, he's isolated. Giggs would change that.
Oh, feck me, and look at what he went to do in the box as well. Totally went to defend space in such a situation. I just saw the replay. We were so out of shape at the back because of that fecked up pass.
We're playing 4-2-3-1 with a diminutive "he wasn't fouled, he fell" man in the hole: Fletch and Carrick are hanging back, which means Pool's DMs are counting on the ref and taking their chances with Park whilst cheating towards the wingers with their fullbacks are hugging the lines.
No real space for Nani or Valencia to operate. In that sense, Park could be doing better, but he's getting jostled like crazy everytime he even looks like he's about to get a touch.
Owen has a point, when was the last time a player stayed on his feet after a foul and the penalty was still given?
We really need to up the tempo. Cautious play will allow Liverpool a chance of winning the game. They have shown more urgency than us when they have the ball and that is something we must face up to.
We're lacking creativity up front. Park needs to come off, preferably for Berba.
Just not had the cutting edge going forward so far today, Giggs or Scholes could change that.
So was half of liverpool's possession. We haven't created much, but we've had far more chances than them and have been the better team.
Can't believe Liverpool fans are even disputing the penalty. As stonewall as they get. Jesus.
We need to get either Berba or Scholesy on for Park..simple really.
When was the last time SAF made a HT change other than for an injury guys? I mean come on, all these calls for subs; nothing will change until the hour mark at earliest.
Except that it was outside the box. If that happened against us i'd be ragin. Lucky to stay on the pitch mind.
Anyone...?
Park is doing a lot of defending, I'd rather Nani off, Park left and Scholes or Giggs on
wow this is nerve wracking isn't it.........desperate for us to take this one to make my week feel so good...
From what I saw it was just on the line. IMHO.
this, but could be for giggs. I would put on berba, his little flicks and awareness is meant for the clogged area liverpool are hiding in.
Has any commentary brought up the penalties at OT myth?
This game is playing havoc with my asthma. I hope I survive long enough to see us play a bit smarter in the second half - if we keep building momentum and bring on Giggs and/or Berbs its absolutely possible. We had better remember to mark the she-he though.
Scholes or Berbatov. We need a quick brain.
In extra time of the first half, Rooney did a nice Starfish impression.
He's done it to Nani before.
Park isn't having a good game at all. His touch is poor today plus our build up is so slow he is getting marked out.
We really need to speed things up some how because Pool are easily closing out any space Rooney / Park / Valencia.
I think Giggs will come on for Park but, I hope SAF doesn't wait too long. I wouldn't mind seeing Berbatov in there because he'll be able to hold on to the ball where we seem to be losing it.
Any time we try to get the ball into a dangerous area we pass to one of their lot. Keeping it at the back is fine - just can't get any penetration.
Scholes maybe for Carrick at some point to open things up.
Can't believe Masch is still on the pitch and Ladyboy should have already been on a yellow. The tackle for the actual yellow was ridiculous.

we need technique too
I saw that
They are technical gods.
Park is putting in a shift, harassing Liverpool so his legs are still very much needed. I would have thought some creativity would have come from Carrick, I am still waiting to see him do that. I think we are still affording Liverpool time and space when in possession up until the halfway line. Valencia has been good when given the ball with some room to operate, Nani too. Very little in the way of creativity in this one.
Park should tire and we might see Berba towards the end

Think the initial contact was outside the box. Valencia seemed to wait until he was in the box before he went down. Not complainin but!
