Liverpool v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[johncvilla88]

Samir Carruthers just been on twitter to confirm he recons we should of had a penalty towards the area for a foul on him in which he was booked for diving!

Is it just me, or is Dalgleish just a detestable bugger. ?

No

Dalgleish gives people other than Liverpool fans a lot to dislike.

He's a cock on a magnificent scale. Just heard him say Suarez book was scandalous. He gives a new meaning to dour Scots. A bitter, bitter man.

It's not just you - I really dislike the guy.

@SamirCarruthers Why don't you post a photo of today's ref in a Liverpool shirt?

[Jimbo]

I'll take the point, however ugly and desperate the performance.

[WALTERS WARRIORS]

Collins was outstanding today. Also Baker and Given. Ball retention is terrible. How come Swansea recently a championship side can retain the ball against anyone in the premiership. Surely the coaching staff should be working on this. Great result ........

Because they have bought players that are comfortable with the ball and encourage that. We still have mostly MON players who were more defend deep and counter attack which often means ball retention isn't the biggest priority. I works when your outlets are Young and Downing. I'm convinced that had GH remained you'd have seen an end to the kick it long era.

Agree.  It has to be decided what type of approach to football you want to install into the team. Makoun should of had longer but was sent packing. I think if Houllier was still manager we would now be similiar in terms of football to Swansea, Arsenal etc. Think some two touch five a sde is required at Body moor .................

If the post match from AM includes:

Unlucky
Excellent Game Plan
Inexperienced

Or any of a number of other similar things he shouldn't be our manager by the morning.

We had an excellent opportunity to win at Anfield today and have ended up clinging on to a draw.

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.

Give it a rest.

His leg was taken away from him in the area.  Definitely a penalty

With all due, he's entitled to he's view. I certainly think he's being harsh, but if that's how he saw the game then fair enough.

[damon loves JT]

I was so nervous about the game I had to pretend it wasn't happening.

A big defeat - which many were predicting - would have had an awful effect. A point is a point.

Next

Mac, my point is, whingeing on the internet won't change anything.

Oh.

It's amusing to see the stcik that KKK is getting in the comments section of this match report:

I just saw Dalglish's interview on SSN and he is in denial/blame mode just like our own out-of-his-depth Scottish manager,

[TheSandman]

An excellent point that few would have backed us to get. Not a champagne performance by any means but we came away with a point that our relegation rivals didn't get today and will as a result help us pull away from the mire.

Something that really struck me today and against Chelsea was the fighting spirit we showed. We seem to have much more of that with the younger players in the team, even if we are putting in performances of no better quality, we are still going down fighting. For me, this stands us in better stead.

Oh, and I say this very often, but Dalglish is a total ******. I hope he falls down a sinkhole.
