How far offside was he :shock:

It's not as though Lovren was pushing up so it was a matter of split seconds, he was just standing a yard or two off. If he's not sure if he's touched it - obviously did - he has to ask the ref.

United are shit as well, Liverpool have gotten in behind three times and not forced a decent save out of de Gea yet. The only way United can chuck this is if they get a man sent off, not that Atkinson will have the bottle to give any of them a second yellow if he can at all avoid it.

Commentators saying it was difficult to spot the touch by van persie. Wtf? It picked up speed and changed direction after going past his head :shock:

How can Neville say that because it took him 'three replays' to realise it was offside, it would have been impossible for the linesman to spot it?

It was clearly offside when watching it live, and then you could see how blatant it was on the very first replay. I was shocked that Neville hadn't noticed, and had to be told by Martin Tyler. But to then act as if it wasn't his mistake, but a close-call, is embarrassing.

Neville can talk bollocks at times and this is another example, it was a clear offside unless you support utd.

Yes agree and then Martin Tyler looking at a player waiting to come on as sub wearing yellow shorts and socks cannot even get his team right.
Thought it was a poor game quality wise, passing was dreadful at times. Liverpool really missed Stevie G today...edit..sorry apparently he was playing, :D :D

Genuine question, how do you follow games on twitter? I have tried to get into twitter and have an account but just don't get it. How do I go about following on twitter?
