Aston Villa vs Liverpool Match Thread

No Grealish again either.

He doesn't deserve to be picked after his dismal performance against Blackpool.

Yes because the rest of them do after 4 straight league games without a goal.

So why do Cleverley, Gabby,Weimann and Nzogbia keep being picked?

I'm not starting my 'coverage' until 8 minutes in

Who do you suggest gets picked then instead? I think we have better options out wide than Grealish.

[UK Redsox]

Lambert doesn't do "wide"

[villasjf]

Bacuna offers more in midfield going forward than those 4.

[ozzjim]

Who manic road?

[Boz]

Once again Lambert comes up to his normal standard, no balls when it comes to taking an opportunity to do something different and confound us all. No doubt he'll bring Gil on around 85 minutes.

[olaftab]

Well Holte ender fuller than normal just before KO. The ground looks near capacity today. Protest may work if they s planning to walk out at KO

[manic-road]

Who manic road?

I would pick a fit Cole or N'zogbia ahead of Grealish, he has only performed coming off the bench for the last 15-20 minutes against tired defenders.

[phantom limb]

The protest looks a bit shite

[john e]

Fucking brilliant villa fans are

I've never seen the Holte that full a few minutes before kick off

[Goldie.7]

Protest failed quite badly.

[Percy McCarthy]

It must be written in the loan agreement that Cleverley has to play,although knowing how our manager thinks,he probably thinks he is doing a excellent job.

There's no way it's written in the contract. Clubs only insist on that if it's a player they hope to see develop and/or gain experience. Man Utd don't give a shit about TC23, they just want rid.

Anyway, dull as the team selection is, there is a chance/hope that it will work better against a team that will attack us than it does against a massed defence.
