Let's concentrate on playing our game, and not on the ref. I happen to think Webb is by and large, the best ref in the prem. Most players say so as well, he talks to the players and people generally understand why he's making a decision. Whilst he's got a few big ones wrong, I see plenty of times where Webb gets himself into a great position and sees that there is contact with the ball first from a challenge in the box and doesn't award the penalty. No one praises him for such a good decision, because that's just his job. But everyone remembers the big decisions that go wrong.
Plus, yeah the penalty decision he gave us was a stone wall penalty so you can argue than any ref would have given it, but I disagree. How often do you see a penalty given for the first incident, shirt pulling, 50odd seconds into the game? Most refs won't want to rock the cradle and will let it slide whereas they wouldn't later in the game.
Fergie and the Man u crowd are probably the bigger issue here.
We just need to play our football and we need big performances from everyone. Chiefly, the Gerrard's and Suarez's whilst our back 5 needs to be solid and keep concentration at all times other RVP will punish us. Hernandez too.
We seem to raise our game against them, so I'm hopeful. I don't know whether we will win, but I think it will be a contest. We battered them at home, even with 10 men for the vast majority of the game. But ultimately, 2 suspect decisions cost us. Let's hope for 11 vs 11 and a highly charged battle, like it often is.
