What about Gerrard on Naysmith????

Gerrard should be made to sleep Wycliffe's missus (vigin ad) for the challenge on that poor lad. It was disgusting and you should be banned till next season[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

alanjack - those sort of tackles go on every weekend in some game or another, you'd end up with no players, if you banned them all 'til the following season. It is only because Gerrard is a high profile player, that it is being highlighted so much. I don't condone two-footed tackles, but unfortunately they will continue to happen!

i am neither everton or liverpool but that tackle was disgraceful , he said on telly that he pulled out of it, yeah right, i think he will get a 3 game ban fot that, its a shame when you think he's probably englands best holding midfielder as well. just hope he don't pull silly stunts playing for england eh ?.

Why are people going OTT on Gerrard, what I can't understand is the FA only dishing out a small ban for a player who intentionally went out to damage a player for life and he openly admitted it (I call that GBH). Then said player makes loads of money because its published in his book....
Yes bad tackle, and the ref would have sent him off if either he or his assistant had seen it. He will be punished by videa evidence and a fine imposed - what more do you want ? rehab ?

Yawn yawn neilabu!
Two footed tackles where the player jumps into the air with the intention to land on the opposing player are not that common in the Premiership... I can't remember too many.
Do you say the same when it's Keano?!

You know it might help if you read my emails - thats your first point of misunderstanding.
Somewhere you will see that I've said it was wrong for him to do that and that he will get his punishment.
There are players who do this kind of thing for fun....

Yes but my point is if it was Keane or, for that matter, any other United player, you would be calling for a public execution! Well, that's the way you come across...
You've kept me busy at work though so thanks for that and Merry Xmas!

seem to remember david beckham sticking an elbow on to a leeds united player earlier this year and getting away scot free....also saw a couple of very debatable everton players tackless....it's a man's game and i do believe that gerrard did try to stop...that's why he didn't actually go through the player....and campbell should have walked for his attitude and raising his hands to another player...instant sending off offence....and how did weir stay on the pitch for a blatant body check?
merry xmas and well done blackburn

If they say that they would prefer to have won that league game rather than move into a Cup Final, albeit the Worthy in which they are the holders, they are Liars.
Roll on the semi's...

Pontificating
I think the expression on Gerrards face is not one of someone who is pulling out, nor are the clenched fists.
Merry Christmas ash1 you grumpy old ****** new years res for you, see if you can post on a thread which has nothing to do with Man U without bitching about Utd at some point during that post
Happy Christmas ALL and may your footy be good clean and plentyful

Aren't we forgetting Paul Scholes and some of of his horrendous tackles - every team has a culprit....and you are also not taking into account that this was The Merseyside Derby, where it has always been renowned for dirty play! Remember the bloke with the huge ears [Jeffers - I think] throwing punches at Westerveld?
Red mist descends in these sort of games unfortunately

WTF has Scholesy got to do with this?! He isn't a dirty player and certainly doesn't deliberately go in two footed. As STi says, he is just a pretty bad tackler, there isn't much malice involved!
...and Westerveld was innocent in that clash was he? From where I was sitting it looked like half a dozen of one.....
I'm forgetting just how fair, unbiased and impartial we all are!

LOL at these posts. Let's keep the partisan comments flying in...
Bad tackle by Gerrard, he deserves a ban for that IMHO
(hopefully the united fans can find nothing to take offence at inthese comments, but.................)

What a load of rubbish that was [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] lazy overpaid to$$ers [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] 2 fecking points out of 24 - cant see it improving either! Bloody joke!

I hope Blackburn do remain on a low point as the Villa can't get much lower than they are now and we face them twice next month.
Lynee, at least you drew - Man City 3, Villa 1: poor performance was not the way to describe Villa - totally sh1te.

Houllier is breaking records all the time, its now officially our worst run of games since the early 50's. Thats until the next 2 games (Arsenal and Geordies, both away), that should take him into the 1940's nicely !
He's running out of things to say after the game too - he's already used the world cup fatigue thing a few times, and the other line 'dont forget they are young'
I'm not one to panic, but I feel a twitch in my arm in reaching for that button....

It's getting to the stage that the Kop are remaining quiet through a lot of the game because even getting behind the team and cheering them on, makes no difference. It is all so predictible, teams coming to Anfield have sussed out the one-dimensional footie that they play

I was out shopping yesterday and the game was commentary match on Radio 5 live - the commentators also remarked on the lack of noise at the ground.
I don't think its the players at fault too much, after all its the same players who kept us at the top for a while. It has to come down to man management skills and game planning / strategy.
I do think that some players need to be moved out though - Smicer, Traore. I like Carragher, but he only plays in one half of the pitch.
At the moment, our only real ambition is CL next year.

Yes, can't remember last time Heskey hit the back of the net.
Tactics are too negative - playing when you're behind is the most obvious one e.g. Boro, Fulham, Sunderland, Man U and then not killing games off when you're ahead e.g. Blackburn.
Surely it was just a matter of time before the wheels came off.
I'm glad we managed to get 31 points on the board before all this happened, otherwise we'd be down where Leeds were.
