Another draw. It seems like we've drawn the last dozen games.

Have to start winning pronto starting midweek or we'll soon be out of contention in everything.

Seems? That isn't too far from the truth.

Don't really care if we are out of contention in the Sweet FA Cup. Would be nice to win though, but not essential.

Good result for Everton in the circumstances, though they might well have held on but for Howard's mistake, and they will have a better chance back at Goodison and with a couple of players hopefully set to return. Was struck by how quiet that home crowd was today, only seemed to waken up after Gerrard scored and then dozed off again shortly afterwards.

Actually thought they were loud enough. All the songs got a run, the Kirby one especially.

True it would be the 3rd choice of trophies to win this year but I wouldn't be so flippant as to call it the sweet FA Cup,especially in the 20th anniversary of the Hillsborough I think it would be great to win it this year,though I am a little biased as I love the FA Cup..

I'd take any kind of win right now just to get the ball rolling again.

Just checked. Drawn 5 of the last 8. Seems like more.

I could actually see us losing the least amount of games in the league this season but being undone by a scatter of draws.

They bought Kuyt for 13 million or something? Somewhere in that area.

Gerrard is priceless.

Yeah was a bit flippant and I do enjoy it. But it is our third priority, so I am not bothered either way.

Gerard class act for sure as i say not a supporter of any team but cant help thinking that 6 draws in 9 games how many of them games would utd have went on to win?? the killer instinct seems to be non existent.

Dirk actually started the season very well. Was scoring a few goals and getting a few assists. Last 6 weeks though he's been pretty poor. Could do with being dropped for a spell only for he's Rafa's lovechild. Plus the competition for his place is hardly fierce.

[Carmen Stateside]

Your right about Gerrard, another great performance from him today!
As someone said before, the extra game is not what is needed right now!
Think everyone seemed to come through without injury so with Agger back Rafa should have a full squad to pick from for Wednesday.

He was just ok today, should have done a lot better with the shot. Last six weeks he has dropped off the pace a bit, but that period included the Newcastle match - he was superb in that game.

Need to see a goal from him soon.

United have won 7 or 8 games 1-0. Many of those with very late goals. Not playing that well relatively speaking but they are getting the right result.

liverpool need a six yard box preditor......

Perhaps  

I just think people forget that a team can't be all attack, skill, offensive - wingers anyway. A winger plays in the middle of the attack and defence and they need to have defensive duties as well.

That said, he needs to show a lot more on the attacking side. His goal return is decent this year, but he covers so much that is needed in a team that he is a sure starter every game.

Me and AZ have an argument all the time here about Kuyt creating space, I think Arbeloa reaped the benfits of it today.
