Aston Villa vs Liverpool - Premier League (20/21 - Game 4)

[Venton]

I posted in the wrong thread that, Hendo for Keita in the second half. He's an absolute passenger out there (again), I'd argue Grujic should be ahead of him tbh.

Keita, work in procession is awful, he hides. I'm ****ing sick of him. Thankfully he'll be nowhere near the team when Thiago is back.

Most of the team has been poor, bar Robertson and Jota, but Keita is absent. Don't know whether he's playing in the wrong position or is just dreadful but he's just not there.

Offside in the move leading to the corner for the 3rd though.

We need goal threat - Fab into CB and Hendo on and bring on Jones as well for Gini or Naby

Never want to see keith play for us again, total waste of a ****. Jones gives us so much more drive. Even Grujic is much better.

Our piss weak midfield all spectators. Now our attack isn't bailing us out every week and teams have learned to play out against us (they've seen the Leeds highlights) we struggle to show any midfield beef when we're up against it.

Don't think so on that one. Gomez' foot. Didn't show the lines on that one though.

Fun reminder

Teams have worked out our backine offside trap. It's making us look like ****ing mugs. Biggest test for klopp to sort this out over the coming weeks. Today is damage limitation. Win the half and go again.

I’ll settle for the draw now I reckon

Why was the 4th not offside? It’s not like he was completely passive - even though he never got the ball, he imposed himself twice in that passage of play

2nd goal looked tight as well. Small margins in terms of playing offside goals 2, 3 and 4 relied on tight offside calls if the defence had got 2nd & 4th right and ref/linesman had called the move which resulted in the corner it could be 1-1 now despite how **** we've been

[S-RED]

To be fair Adrian has been the least of our problems, horrendous cock up for the first goal, but could do nothing about the others, they were all down to the backline.

Don't agree, Adrian sets the agenda & Gomez compounds it.

**** all you can do as a team if 2 of the back 5 are having the worst game possible. TAA dos he stay to cover or does he go, means Salah is isolated, Fab doing 3 jobs as Naby hasn't turned up.

I wasn't kidding when i called for Hendo after 20...... Tell you what, Jose would have done it, the signs were there in full HD !!!

****ing calvert lewin, richarlison & ham'es will be licking their lip; in fact i bet Moise Kean is gutted he is going to PSG, he would have a field day with the way we are playing tonight.

There’s also the penalty on Salah not given at 1-0.

I actually think we could still win

Big fan of the 'if you're offside in the attack, you're ****ing offside' view. If you're on the pitch, you're ****ing interfering with ****ing play.

But the cunts running football wanted a more attacking biased game a few years ago.

[Exiled_red]

Hopefully Klopp has had a right go at them , lit a fire under them and we come out and try to put it right 2nd half.

Looks like Minamino coming on.

[Mark79]

It’ll be the greatest 4-5 since Norwich
