Liverpool & Manchester United

Footballs biggest rivalry continues these two weeks when Manchester United walk towards their 19th English League title, one more than their nemesis, Liverpool has.


The last time Liverpool had any success in the English league was when this man was playing for them, John Barnes.


Described by Ian Rush in his memoirs, Rush: The Autobiography: Liverpool's Greatest Striker, Liverpool's Greatest Era, The True Story, as the most skilled player to ever play for Liverpool, Barnes was remarkable in every sense. His unique skills in dribbling and curling the ball is something Liverpool will never ever see again.

After Barnes retired, the Kops never could find the passion that made them the most successful club in history.

And now, due to their own stupidity, they sit and watch as Manchester United win the 19th English League title and be crowned as the most successful English club in history. This is something I don't foresee Liverpool winning in the next few years.

Of all the Manchester United players, the one I despise the most is Roy Keane. He's an utter bastard who has no respect for the referee and the game. He is the thug that brings shame to the game. It is very obvious that all he has is his temper and not any skills nor brains because he cant do any better being a manager when manager are people who has a football brain. A football brain is not something you could ask Roy Keane for.

But the player I admire is the most is Ryan Giggs. Giggs is the complete opposite of Keane. While Keane was despised, Giggs was adored. Adored for the superb player he is, and also for his gentlemanly conduct and sportsmanship. His sportsmanship reminds me of Gary Lineker. Both players rarely got yellow or red carded in the game. To Giggs, you deserve winning the 19th championship for Manchester United.
