Aston Villa 1-4 Liverpool: In game and Post Match discussion

When our kids played here in the league Cup it was 4-0 at half time.

They should be ashamed of that performance  ... if you want to call it a performance.

I got absolutely slaughtered for saying we would make hard work of this - questioned on whether i was true supporter after 40 years of support. It wasn’t being negative it was being realistic. Not saying this to be proud just have a sense that when we are not right - and at the moment we are not right

I wonder where Jurgens breaking point is? And is he close to really losing it..

Any of you lot have the misfortune of Tyler and Robson on your stream?

I have but keeps breaking up, which isn't a bad thing from what I've read in here !

Dear me. What a shabby performance again but this is against kids. We're slow and pedestrian again we need a high tempo. There seems to be a malaise at the club just now. The hunger we showed over the last few seasons is absent whether they think they just have to show up I don't know but this sort of performance against any team is not acceptable for me. Yes their goalie has made some decent saves but this is all down to us being sloppy in our passing once more. Shaq and the OX on for Jones and Minamino would be my changes initially. For me Minamino should never start ahead of a fit Shaqiri.

We'll win it.

We're in a trough. That's all. Spoiled to f**k since Jan '18........

Not a chance of winning the league with our current CB options.

I wonder where Jurgens breaking point is? And is he close to really losing it..

Why would the Boss lose it..?

People looking for something that’s not there..

Louie Barry was at Barcelona's academy for a while so that's not entirely fair

Oh I didn't realise they have Louie Messi Barry out there no wonder we're struggling.

My tip was 2-1. 

My favorite progression on this thread today is how the guys who shouldn't have been playing because we don't want to risk their being injured, should now be dropped for their pattern of poor form.

Enjoy the 2nd Half.

I’m with you mate

Mane in the centre is nowhere near effective as he is out wide, affects the balance of the team.

We got to the top of the league largely without the guys that are out.......

Why would the Boss lose it..?

People looking for something that’s not there..

Yea, I'm not sure why he'd 'lose it'?

We're in a rut which I'm sure we will get out of.

Were we top of the league under Roy with half a team?

No? Didn't think so. Stop attention seeking.

I’m talking about our performances. They have been tripe. Normally the sort of tripe you get when a manager is on his way out like rafas or Brendan’s last days. But that’s not the case here. Since winning the league we have regressed.
Maybe it’s covid.
Maybe it’s the lack of fans.
Maybe it’s the 30 year wait somehow having a negative effect.
Who knows.
But we have become boring as f***.

This team is only getting worse. Absolutely dire. Pathetic. Useless. I could go on... 

Yes Boss.. good move with Thiago

Why don’t you go F**k yourself..

This was a no win...Hammer them its only kids. Win but not play well were shitr. Lose and, well everyone thinks the sky is falling in

No matter which of the above is the final outcome Ill save my verdict until 6.20 pm Sunday January 17th on where we are truly at

Yes Boss.. good move with Thiago

Yep.

If we aren't creating from wide, which we haven't in a while, we need something more from midfield.

That was then mate, teams know we are weak in Central defence they know exactly how to exploit our weakness.

Salah gone off big time since all that Barcelona transfer nonsense talk, another one of our players!

Let's see what you can do then, Thiago.

Thiago on to try secure a win.

Desperate times.
