They are renaming the Centenary Stand the Kenny Dalglish stand before kick off.   I'm hoping they might bring on all the goal stanchions Anfield used during his time there as a tribute. That would be awesome.  My personal favourite is the 1989 stanchion with red nets. The one where Michael Thomas scored.

 


T=you wouldn't get away with a crossbar as thin as that these days though. Must be against the regulations.

They are top top stanchions.  I can't see the United players

Mourinho has the bus clamped for illegally parking in front of the goals. He's on the phone now. Pitch patterns are the boring EPL standard cut. Manchester wearing a greyish white kit which is hard to see.

How was that not a yellow card for lukaku. Blatant that he was lashing out

Agree - they were better when they had home grown players at the clubs.
Now there is about 3 English players starting.

I think the Man U / City / Chelsea matches are bigger as they are challenging for the league.
Not being funny but nobody expects Liverpool to win the title anymore.

That's what happens when only one team are interested in playing football

There's a fellow United barstooler beside me who's shocked how United are playing

As if this was completely out of character for a Mourinho team.

Anyway I'll take a point all day long from Anfield.
