I am quite embarrassed - not by the score but by the performance. Even before we were down to ten men we weren't exactly threatening. Then we go and have a man sent off for nothing - if you are going to get sent off you might as well ensure Ronaldo doesn't play the rest of the game.
Not that I am condoning football violence in anyway

Actually Javier Macherano blew Liverpool chances of winning the game or at least a draw.
In the first 15 minutes, Liverpool played better games with beautiful passing although Manchester United created many chances of scoring goals. The turning point was when Macherano was sent off. He has no reason to question the referee after he had picked the first yellow card. Knowing that the second yellow card will means red card and off you go. Liverpool should blame themselves for losing the game. It is so obvious that Liverpool were weak in midfield and defending. Whereas for Torres, he hardly touch the ball.
Liverpool should think of engaging new manager. Benitez is not for Liverpool.

If there was someone obviously better to manage the team then I would agree - there aren't though that many world class managers around or so it seems.
In some ways I would like Mourinho but I don't know how good he would be without spending 100 million on a handful of players

As much as it pains me to say this, but I have to agree with you. Liverpool were way too casual, they kept giving the ball away in the first half, and in the end, Man U scored just before half time. When Mascherano got sent off, i know this wasn't going to be a good day. We were pathetic. The defense was bad, the midfield couldn't work together and Torres hardly got the ball. One thing I have to ask though, when is Benitez going to realise that Arbeloa and Aurelio are not good enough for Liverpool? Of all the players on the field, I think they were the worst.

I am sorry to say Skrtel and even Carragher pushed Arbeloa and Aurelio for worst player today. An accolade that Reina only avoided by having a couple of decent saves
