I'm a Man Utd fan; I thoroughly enjoy watching Arsenal play simply because of the brilliant football they play, respect. I'm not too keen on watching teams like Liverpool and Chelsea play, although Chelsea's play in recent matches have been good. Long ball, backline passing.
Liverpool whine a whole lot more, PLUS you cant deny it was a blatant dive. There was contact, but it was minimal and did nothing to warrant a tumble from Babel. Liverpool was fortunate to come up tops in the three-consecutive match encounter with Arsenal. Controversial decisions favoured Liverpool. Rafa would have whined too if the same would have happened to him. Any other manager would.
Oh ya, didn't Liverpool make such a huge fuss about Mascherano's ban? He was duly punished for his stupidity. Why are you guys such whiners? Loads of other incidents too, which I'd gladly post up if you're interested.
Come on, ultimately you're just dissed that Man Utd whooped your arses so bad this season. Stop making yourself feel good by insulting Man Utd's players. When your team can actually beat Man Utd then open your damn gap.
Just for the record, none of Man Utd's strikers are the shortest and ugliest on the earth.
My 0.02; no malice intended whatsoever.

Dudes, peace plz. I'm a liverpool fan, i hate it that my fav team got thrashed by man u yes i freely admit it. But i believe where each team is in the CL/BPL right now is testament to their commitment and mental strength, dubious refereeing decisions or not. What FGL wrote was absolutely correct: all managers will whine at some point or another. Fergie when Ronaldo gets tackled 'too harshly', Rafa when Mascherano get sent off for his own stupidity (yes i feel that way), Grant when they lost to Spurs in the LC Final, Wenger when penalty decisions go against his team. Not that some are unfounded either. I believe that all teams deserve credit to where they are now. U can't take it away frm them. Look man, liverpool also has its ugly ppl (look at Riise!) When all is said and done, ppl who win the league win it bcos they are gd. All the criticism in the world won't make a difference. Arsenal are out of the CL for a reason; a simple one: they didn't beat Liverpool. Roma aren't thru bcos they didn't beat Man U. Simple. Everything is all said and done. U can't change it. Let's jus make up and move on shall we? Peace!

Heh. Riise's not as bad-looking as Tevez wat. Wanna talk about ugly players, do check out Frank Ribery. HAHAHA that guy's one more scar away from looking like Frankenstein for goodness' sake!
By the way, it's all good. I just didn't really appreciate henryvelge's remarks about Arsenal whining and all. Complaining about about another team whining must mean your team doesn't do it, since you hate whiners that much.
Kissed and made up.

Arsenal played better then Man u.indeed,we gave away the stupid free kick and were a bit sloopy at when in front of goal..but truth be told we were very unclucky not to have taken all 3 points..

'It is hard to swallow that we won't win the title this year'
Manchester Utd 2-1 Arsenal
Barclays Premier League

on crucial decisions...
"I believe we played with quality and spirit and were unlucky to lose this game. I never felt under pressure and I believe defensively we played quite well. We lost on a penalty - that you can give or not give but we are used to that now - and on a free-kick when Gilberto did not touch him. I believe these two decisions made a big difference. We have to take it but overall I am proud of my team."
on comparisons with the title contenders...
"Between success and failure this season there was very little. We have to accept that we will not win the title and that is hard to swallow. We do not feel that there is a difference technically and collectively between us and Chelsea and Manchester United."
on sticking with his philosophy...
"We have to continue to produce the football we produce. We will not always be unlucky. We played well at Liverpool and today. With all the bad things that have gone against us we need to be exceptionally strong to produce a performance like we did today."
on sticking with youngsters...
"We have the quality and we are young. I have worked with this team for a long time now and people don't know what that means. For example Alex Song played today. It is two years ago since I bought him. Today he played in a massive game and showed he has exceptional quality. He was not like that two years ago. We want to be rewarded for the quality we have."
on losing confidence and goals...
"The confidence has dropped recently. In two months we have gone through a difficult period. You cannot fault the spirit. That has been exceptional but when you get knock after knock it is difficult to take. We led at Liverpool and today for a moment but we have been hit recently by goals. When that happens you become more cautious and that means you are more cautious under pressure."

Anyway congrats to Man U - I thought AFC was by far the better team but we didnt take our chances and man u took both theirs well.
A team not playing well but clinical enuff to win on their off days do deserve to be champs.
Given a choice of man u or chelski to win epl - I still hope for chelski to take it though ....

tats wat Pool fan wanted, not Man U to win the title...coz they are closing the gap with Liverpool all time league title tally....I bare no grudges on both chelsea and man u...i see the way man u player was sportmanship towards arsenal player and vice versa...same goes to chelsea.....it seems the player are more mature nowadays rather den the previous event of brutal challenge and fierce physical rivalry(remember KEANE VS Viera era, Mourinho bad mouth era)....as for liverpool, i got got nothing to say except "DIVE AS IF UR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT"
