This shouldn't be a revelation, but without C.Ronaldo, United aren't really that special. Yeah but Liverpool was without Torres, and Gerrard only got on for 20 minutes. This is the first game all year that Liverpool has actually played well and outclassed their opponents. Also Vidic got sent off meaning that he will miss their next game against Chelsea. If they lose that game they could be 9 points off Liverpool and Chelsea's total after 5 weeks.
