im unsure if that arsenal player dived or not for that penalty. i think a large element of cheating was involved.

That was crap. I had the pleasure of being there to see it, all 4 goals were scored at the end I was at so at least I got to see a bit of action 
I don't think our defence is that bad, it's not perfect but it's definitely the centre midfield that is the problem. They lose the ball too easily so aren't offering anything like the protection to the defence that we are used to plus then don't have much when going forward.
We are missing a class central midfielder that can score goals and pick a pass. Carrick is Mr sideways pass and the only shot he can muster is with the side of his foot, Gibson is shite, he will never make it as being a regular 1st team starter, Scholes is class and has his place and uses but we shouldn't be relying on him at his age, he should be a back up option. Anderson is crap and goes to being even worse when made to play on the left wing. I would like to see a shit hot midfielder to come in to play alongside Fletcher as I think Fletcher is good but needs someone better alongside him.
Rooney made no difference but I didn't expect him to despite the rest of Old Trafford screaming for him to come on. Christ knows what they thought he was going to be able to do in the form he is in at the moment.
Berbatov was good but can't do it all on his own, same with Nani, they are our too most consistent players at the moment. Chicarito disappeared in the 2nd half.
When Giggs went off it would of been a good time to throw on Obertan or Bebe and give them a shot at it. But I don't think either of them were even on the bench so that wasn't an option.
I don't have a problem with the supply from the wings, Nani is doing well there and if/when Valencia is back we will be stronger in that department.
Can't help but feel we missed out big time on a really good signing in Van der Vaart. He scores and sets up goals for fun and we could afford him too.

I would actually agree for once. Too many points been lost already to average teams. Ok we aren't that far behind Chelsea in the scheme of things but unless something drastic starts happening we can't hope for any better than 2nd with the way we are going. Difference with Chelsea is (apart from yesterday) once they score they keep going and kill off teams. We made the chances to be 4 or 5 nil up at half time yesterday but we don't take them, we relax too much and think the game is won after 30 mins when we are 2 up forgetting there is still 60 mins left. That's the difference!
I'm having a bit of knee jerk reaction here and things will improve as they always do but still central midfield there is something missing.

1st half we played ok. 2nd half we gave up. I was waiting for the Albion to pop a 3rd in to be honest as we certainly didn't look like scoring.

2-1 Everton. Not just because I don't like Liverpool but I genuinely think Everton's team is better than Liverpools at the moment and they have home advantage.
