3 cleansheets in a row for Liverpool. Look good, without best player too.

That United team looked stale and ordinary today. I don't think it's good that Giggs is still in there as an automatic starter. Young has looked out of his depth at United for quite a while now. And while Wellbeck might be talented and promising, he still looks lost up front a lot of the time. And their bench today:
13 Lindegaard
12 Smalling
28 Buttner
08 Anderson
17 Nani
25 Valencia
14 Hernandez
You can't exactly say that switching any of them into the starting 11 would have changed things much. Rooney makes a big difference of course, but overall there's just an underwhelming, non-scary look to them at the moment. Desperately need freshening up.
For a team lacking creativity, it's criminal that Kagawa doesnt even make the bench.
England U21s looking comfortable and winning 1-0 at HT.
Looking at the players and doing a brief scouting as well as basing it on players who have made it previously at this level, I am willing to say that only about half of this starting eleven will make it to Premier League level and play consistantly.
Butland, Shaw, Ward-Prowse, Zaha, Redmond.
Carroll has been the stand out player this half.
I thought he was the stand out player 1st half personally but he's certainly been one of the best performers overall tonight. He should make it in the PL, hopefully with us but he might not be given a chance considering the amount of players we have in his position.
