Finally after all the international games the Premier League is back and one of the biggest games of the season – Liverpool v United. The game finished 2-1 to Liverpool and to be honest they deserved it. United played very poor particularly in the 2nd half. United scored early on after good work from Berbatov and a good finish by Tevez. Liverpool’s equaliser was after Van Der Sar pushed the ball clear right into Brown. Liverpool’s winner was after a good run by Mascherano (when Giggs should have kicked the ball out) and Babel finished.

There were 2 debutants in the game. Berbatov for United who started Ok but then was very quiet. Reira for Liverpool gave them something they have not for a while – someone who can run down the wings with pace. He did really well with some excellent touches. Looks like a good buy.

As well as the result, Carrick was injured. An ankle injury and after going off he was seen on bench with crunches – not a good sign!! Also Vidic was sent off near the end after 2 yellow cards. To be honest should have been off after first when he tackled Keane and was properly just about the last defender. However the 2nd yellow card was for a high “almost” elbowed challenge on Alonso.

United are worryingly poor without Ronaldo. We need him back soon – he just gives United that extra something. Hopefully when Berbatov plays more with United he can get fully match fit. The midfield today without him was rubbish – Scholes may was showing his age and Anderson maybe still tired from the Olympics.

in the other games Arsenal beat Blackburn 4-0. A hat-trick by Adebayor and some good play by Walcott. Newcastles problems continue after losing 2-1 to Hull. Its just a mess at St James Park!! To make it worse they had a man sent off after Guthrie took a wide hack at a player.

In the other big game City played Chelsea. Robinho made his debut. The game ended 3-1 to Chelsea and they played well. Robinho scored City’s goal – it was just written on the script for him to score!!! Terry was sent off with a straight yellow card. As much as I dislike Terry I think it was abit harsh. It was a foul and yellow card but the City player was far from the goal still when he was tackled (almost rugby challenged!!) and at least one Chelsea player was covering. Chelsea will properly appeal.

Hopefully Ronaldo comes back soon because United need to start getting there act together and he may be the catalyst for it. Arsenal and Chelsea are playing very well so far this season and maybe now Liverpool will go on a good run after a good performance against United.
