Liverpool boss Benitez: Everyone at Anfield knew Man Utd would not win

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez insists victory over Manchester United on Sunday was always going to happen.

While players and fans celebrated Fernando Torres’s opener wildly, unruffled Rafa just took a glance at his watch. Benitez said: "From the keeper to the last fan on the Kop, we were not going to be beaten.

"The players just did not want to lose and this was the perfect response.

"With the fans getting behind the team, we had 12 men on the pitch. We’ve answered a lot of questions."

Bullish stuff from a boss whose Premier League record against great rivals United is four wins, seven defeats and a draw.

I won loads of money betting on the FACT that Man U would lose. Did you???? Hahahahaha

And everyone at Anfield knew Liverpool will not win the title.

Little Agger Shitforbrains...can see that your husband has stopped shagging you to give us all some entertainment. I do not care who won the match, but you are such a brainless uneducated T*rd, who can resist the amusement you provide!

To the real fans out there, well done to L'pool but I doubt they will sustain a run through the season. Chelski will drop games, so it is wide open this year.
