Liverpool v Aston Villa Match Thread

[aldridgeboy]

we think Martiin Oneil wasted money?? That crash on corrie cost £5 million!!!

The bit with the tram was just about the worst piece of CGI I have seen since I watched Mega Shark V Giant Octopus.

Whaaaaaaaat?! The shark eating the airliner wasn't real?!

I wanted to see that film. Wasn't the 80s "star" Debbie gibson in it? Really fancied her when I was a teenager

[Rudy Can't Fail]

There is no excuse for those 45 minutes. None.
Unless we come out fighting, Houllier can expect his honeymoon to be well and truly over.

[Martyn Smith]

Did you know that ancient Pyramids in Egypt have moved 3 miles since they were built? Plate tectonics apparently!

That's further than Dunne...

[Fergal]

I see it's still MON's fault.

No it's not your right. He didn't pay £18m for Warnock,Dunne and Collins. My mistake........

Didn't see many dissenters last year for some of those purchases or their performances. But to keep on playing a plainly unfit and unworthy Dunne was something similar to what MON was criticised for last season and so GH cannot be exempt this.

The root of the problem is MoN.  he spent millions and fucked the squad up.  If he had spent his money better we would not be playing kids tonight.

We had plenty of central midfielders when O'Neill left. They are all injured though. This is why we are playing kids.

What central defenders are injured?

What kids are playing in central defence?

Not one, that's even more disturbing.  The defence is wank.  How much did MoN spunk on a defence thats as shit as ours?

He spent a lot of money on the defence. And yes, this where we are looking most poor despite the fact that this is the position where we don't have many injuries. But Collins and Dunne never played this poorly last season. In fact, Dunne was considered the signing of the season by many.

So you think MoN fucked off and left the club with a quality squad?

[mattjpa]

whats gone wrong? signing of last season to a fat liability. he is so shit at the moment

[JUAN PABLO]

fonz on..   clrk off

[Walmley_Villa]

Someone just said Hou touched the "This Is Anfield" as he walked out. Am I having my leg pulled.

Yep and was signing autographs galore before the game.

[paulcomben]

Jol and Houghton available on the day we witness this.  Get em in tomorrow-dream combo by comparison.

[Martyn Smith]

Clark off, Fonz on for 2nd half, positive move at least...

[achilles]

This is utter rubbish... we are desperately losing all of our confidence.

It is up to the manager, injuries or not, to instill some fight and passion back into this team and if GH can't do it, then he knows where the door is!

[itbrvilla]

If Richard 'blobby' Dunne, Stephen 'can'tfuckintackle' Warnock, and Stephen 'lazyshit' Ireland never wore a Villa shirt again it would be too soon, if James Collins doesn't fuckin sort himself out too then he'll be the next to get told to fuck off.

Why play Albrighton on the left and Downing on the right as well - bloody ridiculous?

Gabby completed isolated and the kids do there best with players who quite clearly don't give a fuck. They looked beat before they walked on the pitch....and this the shittest Liverpool i've ever seen. Sort it out Houllier or fuck off.

See the teams as they were coming out the tunnel?  Not a squeak from our lot while there was plenty of talk from the Liverpool players.  Dunne is a shit Captain, I don't like the way he "accepts" conceding goals.  Never a hint of disappointment.  These players look like they are used to losing, like they have a ready made "excuse" with the injuries.  Well, I don't think this Liverpool side is any better than the XI we have but we have made it so unbelievably easy for them.

Argh, this was all so inevitable.

Non of the ****** give a fuck.  They don't get punished for poor performance.  They just go home and roll in their millions that they've earned by being ******.

[Sleeping Giant]

The hardest thing to take about tonight is that this is the worst Liverpool team in years and we are still losing 2-0. Don't know where all this love for Ciaran Clarke has come from but he is in no way a central midfielder. We have major issues and if we don't buy well in Jan we will be fighting til the last day of the season for survival.

[Matt Collins]

We absolutely have to drop Warnock. He's costing us a goal a game. And we have to get a central midfielder in, even if NRC is back soon. There's not enough personality in there and a relegation fight isn't the place to play Bannan in central midfield I suspect.

I just want to see some fight, some spirit and perhaps a couple of chances in the second half.

And can we practice defending set pieces all week please.

[JUAN PABLO]

Jol gone from Ajax.

Geordies with no money to spend a bigger pull than us!?!?

my thoughts

[Martyn Smith]

Well ushered out Collins...and that's the only positive thing I can think of to say about his performance so far...
