Liverpool v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

....

Regardless of the team we put out if he thinks defending deep and punting it clear for 80minutes is is any way going to bring success in this league then he's deluded and a long way out of his depth.

Thank christ someone else thinks that, I was beginning to think I was watching a different game.

Glad for the point, but it should have been all three against a piss poor Liverpool team.

Yet again we get the first advantage and do sod all with it but invite the other side back in.

yeah because we always do that every year dont we???

 Samir Carruthers shoulda had a penalty.

Thought so too.

Agreed.

Knowing MOTD, they won't even show it.

To be fair, I thought that it was almost identical to the Suarez incident in the first half. Contact, but nowhere near enough to warrant going down like he did.

Some of these comments im reading, i'm finding hard to believe did you actually watch the game. It was not excellent, having 0 shots on goal in the second (how many time have we heard that) against their stand-in keeper is not acceptable.

I'll agree it is a valuable point earned considering.

Will 37 points see us safe? I think we can get three more points from the remaining games.

Think it will be enough this season. Beating Bolton will see us safe, and I think we'll get something off Sunderland before then

The three points comment is my worst case scenario. I think we can beat Stoke and Bolton, draw Sunderland and go to Carrow Road and win on the final day. That would give us 44 points. I'd still want Mcleish out though. look at how crap Liverpool are? Only nine points ahead of us. If we used our squad properly earlier in the season, supplied Bent the way at £20m striker should be supplied we'd have challenged top 8.

great goal by Chris herd
well done the kids for hanging on in there under some heavy liverpool pressure-shame we couldn't catch them on the break for a second goal.
but I'm happy with the point-very nerve racking at the end there!

We had at least one.

The replay showed it. Definitely more contact than Suarez. And if the case is they're the same then WHY is Suarez not booked for that? Then, of course, booked for the second one - and not on the pitch to score the winner?

[Monty]

Important point, the youngsters showed more fighting spirit than the seniors have all year. Having said that, we clearly don't practice ball-retention of any sort, and with a bit more of that (see Wigan and QPR) we would have won today. Liverpool are really, really bad at the moment.

[Rip Van We Go Again]

Beat Stoke and we're almost home, trouble is, do you expect this Manager to play for the win?

Winner? Am I alone in this parallel universe where we got a point?

[Steve kirk]

Watched the game on the net and it must of taken a year off my life, considering the players available it was a great point and we defended like lions, I am very proud of the players tonight.

[Ian.]

Good point.

We will be o.k this season.

Your probably right, but I really don't want this next season though and I'm not even a regular at Villa.

The Ref was worried they'd then be wearing t shirts of support for Suarez in the next game.

[Ian.]

Can't complain. But I will. We shouldn't have let that c*** score. Oh well.

Well I'm sure it was only his 8th of the season. Another good £25m purchase from Kenny.
