That's how I see it too.

Moyes is starting to worry me. He's always been too cautious, but his approach to Drenthe and Denis seems a bit pathetic to me. We've got no strikers, so rather than play Denis, he's going to play Cahill there. Why bother bringing him over?

And he says he needs time to look at Drenthe before he plays, despite the club scouting him for 12 months. Last classic comment he makes is that they are both lacking match fitness, so he doesn't intend to play them in matches. You couldn't make it up.

Brilliant to see Hernandez picking up where he left off last season. The guys movement is world class. I fail to see what King Kenny was moaning about yesterday, the two penalty incidents for Liverpool were quite clearly ball-to-hand, whereas you could clearly see Carragher had his arm around Walters as he was losing his balance. I think Suarez has a cheek claiming handball anyway Rob, Suarez is good but surely Aguero and Hernandez are better all round than him?

Routine for United, almost unfair. That crap Rooney is doing alright at the minute. City look great as well. Dalglish was nearly crying on MOT.

Now, i've missed MOTD and MOTD2 on a couple of occasions so far this season, so i'm unaware of these 4 games 4 bad decisions against Liverpool. Perhaps somebody can enlighten me? He won't be complaining like a b*tch when one goes his way though i'll bet. But that's not exclusive to Kenny of course

Alan Hansen was crying too. Apparently you are allowed to dive all over a player and grab him as he is going for a ball and if he goes down, it's apparently a soft penalty.

Why do MOTD have Hansen doing the Liverpool games and Shearer doing the Newcastle games?

Do not know. Hansen is incapable of being unbiased.

Usually so they can gloat about how great times were with them in the sides.

You get the feeling that Hansen, Lawrenson and Shearer enjoy their sides struggling secretly, so that they have something to whinge about.
