The Liverpool 4 Newcastle 3 game
that has been lauded as the greatest premiership game ever. I've always thought we've had a raw deal with that. The 5-3 at Spurs was surely better? To come back from 3-0 at half time to win it is incredible. The 4-2 at Arsenal was another top quality game and doesn't get the credit it deserves. I think we've had a few games every year that have bettered that (City away 3-2, West Ham away 5-3 to name a couple)
Does the Manchester derby elevate itself above that Liv-New game now? Bearing in mind all the hype that surrounded it, the Tevez saga, Mark Hughes mouthing it, Fergie calling them the noisy neighbours, the controversy, the injury time winner etc. Will we see a more exciting game this season? I don't think we will. |

As to the subject matter, the 3-3 with Barca at the Nou Camp is probably the most exciting game Fergie's Utd have been involved in, end to end, with great individual performances from Rivaldo and Figo for Barca and Cole, Yorke and Beckham for Utd. The 2-2 at Highbury in 02/03 was a great match, drama, a real edge and quality from both sides. That rivalry between those 2 sides at that time was the most intense I can remember. Off the pitch it has been Liverpool, but between the players that fixture has been the one to really cause a huge intensity. It has fallen away in the last 5 years, something of a pity really, because I do not think there is the same energy between our players and those of either Liverpool or Chelsea. 4-3 against Madrid. Brilliant attacking performance by Utd, showed such pride and determiantion to keep coming back at them, Barthez let Utd down so badly over those 2 legs, switch the keepers and we might have won comfortably, I think the stats showed that we had 3 times as many shots on target over the 2 legs. Barthez was at fault for at least 3 of there 6 goasl. |

But that game was notable for the intense nature, RVN with a brilliant goal on the break, then Arsenal get the scrappy equalizer, Henry offside puts them ahead, and just as you think that the season is slipping Ole crosses it to Giggs at the far post for an immediate reply. Fergie on the pitch afterwards knowing that it was a huge result. Incredible run of form to end that season, the 6-2 at Newcastle, 4-0 against Liverpool, a memorable season all round. |
