Consider he hasn't been running around for a few months cos of his broken foot. He was pretty sensational at first though. I have a great ambivalence toward the yard dog though. He's a Scouse traitoe to go over to the Mancs like that. Recently visitors to the house of one of his relatives had their cars vandalised outside. Sick I know but such is the feeling engendered.

Gerrard did us proud though eh? And Cole was a dynamo from start to finish - and that goal!
