Aston Villa (H) Post Match

[Fredo]

Reckless abandon is great. We should always play this way. Taking the odd tonking and leaking a bazillion goals is fine if your dishing out the medicine to all and sundry. If he sets up like this (not 3 at the back but shock and awe tactics) then I'm back onside. If he switches straight to stagnant, dour attrition he can **** off

It wasn't reckless abandon though. We were good and clinical, but it wasn't a gung ho performance. Conceded two stupid goals, that's why it was a bit tensed and nervy and looked like a going for the jugular win.

We'd all want him to stay if he was to always go with this. But he won't

Lucas was great today too.

Really - For 70 mins I thought he slowed us down far too much. Last 20 mins he picked up the pace i though ad pressed them better.

Sakho, Skittles and Can though need to bring the ball out - Far too often Viia just sat back and let them have it and to a certain extent the same with Lucas, especially in the first half.

Did he really say that?

Unnecessary chip pissing there, Fredo.

And compared to the early season ****fests that was as gung ho as you can get

[captainfog]

Also, 3 at the back gives us a good balance

That is the one thing it doesn't do.

[Lecter]

Sturridge and Ings look a great pair. Very mobile. Makes you wonder what the **** Brendan was doing spunking £32m on Benteke.

Ings is looking excellent...I've massively underrated him I think.

Lucas was great today too.

Ings looks a really good buy. Works his socks off

Good result and the performance was a tad better but this changes nothing for me. Still want Brendan gone

The Benteke conundrum only adds to the list of questions against Brendans judgement

It ranks alongside buying the best rightback in the country and playing him as a wingback

Then we have signing Lallana and Firmino when you have Coutinho and when you want to play 4-3-3

[Bender]

Did he really say that?

yep and this,he doesn't know when to shut the **** up.

Fair point

That is the one thing it doesn't do.

It does. We've had our best run last season with it and since reverting to it this season, we haven't lost.

What system would you have us play?

Add the fact he wanted to bin off Lucas who suits this 3 at the back formation perfectly. His only recognised DM and he wanted to sell him. He's a nutter.

[Lecter]

He signs players every summer to work a 433 and then he always changes back. He's nuts. I just used Benteke as he's the easiest example.

Not quite correct

He signs players that don't suit 4-3-3, then tries 4-3-3 then changes when that goes to ****

Even today square pegs and round holes

He's all over the place

To me he's too off the cuff. There's no plan

[DannyMan2006]

It does. We've had our best run last season with it and since reverting to it this season, we haven't lost.

What system would you have us play?

Balance wise There isn't a system out there we could play due to this squad being so horribly lopsided in quality in certain areas.

Rodgers should've stuck with the diamond and signed players to suit it as soon as Suarez left. Had we done so Sterling would still be here.
