FA Cup - Aston Villa: Post Match

[Marina]

I just want us to be the best team in the land again. Money is the key.

Sadly this is true... and it just feels like it makes it even more pointless.

Here's Tim !

Get your sick bags

turned it off as soon as whistle went

[Doc_Piptorious]

... essentially the point I was making haha

Although it would be nice to not be so **** and to have the "Real Madrid" fan at my work leave me alone.

Bit harsh bringing Perkins into this.

[Fosterbloke]

I would absolutely not want oil baron owners. It's just a dick measuring contest.

[Marina]

I hate Chelsea because I am jealous they have become successful through a rich owner. Wanting the same for us would not make me a hypocrite.

But they're sooo dull. And their fans are the worst... and everything about them just seems fake. Do you really want that for us? I dunno. I get where you're coming from. If and when that ever happens to us (which, given our luck, it ****ing won't!), it'll be hard to come to terms with us selling our soul once and for all.

I still think you don't have to go the mega bucks route. Just find a manager capable of setting a team up in an effective system who can produce a high performance level more often than not. Have a flexible squad to change formation depending on the opponent but without disrupting style of play. I dont necessarily think you need a best 11, you need a consistent squad of about 15 first teamers to rotate through considering formation, opposition, suspensions, injuries etc...

Football has become pointless. Its ruined.

[Yozza]

Inept all round
Lack of passion & aggression
Couldn't win a header or second ball
Bossed from the first minute to the last

Based on the performances this season - not just today (players we've brought is also a huge factor) I have to say I wouldn't be sad to see our Emperor go

& he can take his new clothes with him

[danperkins]

Frankly, if its not even being discussed in the upper echelons, then you'd have to question the overall commitment and desire of the owners.

yeah with the way the season has gone and the money spent.... I wouldn't be surprised if their looking elsewhere.

[Roboklopp]

Absolute ****ing ****house performance. Disgraceful. Really starting to question Rodgers.
I'd not bat an eyelid if we got rid of him, but I don't trust FSG to replace him- or their kiddy policy to get us back in the top 4.

Brendan taking a lot of ****, fair enough, but he has shown what he can do with quality player. Apart from Coutinho, there's nobody of any real quality, not one decent midfielder, no striker, it's bloody disgraceful for a club the size of Liverpool.

[john316]

An abysmal, abject performance. Embarrassing to see so many changes in formation to try and 'outwit' Tim Sherwood. Players looked utterly lost throughout the game.

Hard to see anyway things will improve next season if the status quo is maintained. Sturridge isn't going to magically stay 100% fit, Lovren isn't magically going to stop being ****, Suarez isn't going to magically reappear. It's been an utterly **** season for the most part and today just summed up how virtually every big game has turned out.

So depressing.....

Welcome to the world of football in 2015. Its endless money or nothing. You simply have to spend as much as a small countries entire health budget on players wages to have a chance of competing. Its a joy isn't it.

Totally get you, but football sold its soul when BSkyB took over. Don't forget who we sold the family silver to and what they promised.
