Liverpool win

So Liverpool have finally won against Man U in some 8 Premier league games. Though the result is not to my liking, I did expect it.
For starters, Man U have bought only one player in the transfer season. That too at the last minute. Secondly the Ronaldo transfer saga would have unsettled the team. All this has resulted in the team not being fully motivated and in some doubt.
As for Liverpool, they really played very well in the second half and kept testing the United defence and Van Der Sar. Vidic was good as usual and Van Der Sar did all he could to keep Utd in the game.
But ultimately, you have to score goals to win and the attack was disorganized. Possession was given away easily, there were a couple of clumsy tackles also.
So United have only 4 points from 3 games. Though this is bad, its better than the 2 points from 3 games last season. Here's hoping that they recreate the form of last season and go on to win the League.
