Aston Villa vs Liverpool Match Thread

[SamTheMouse]

We don't look any different from usual. Still an awful shape to the side that prevents us from stringing two passes together in the opposition half.

Why does Lambert persist with a set-up that so obviously isn't working?

[Nelly]

Our only attacking intent seems to be getting it to Hutton out wide.

All Liverpool have to do now is keep the ball, they know we're not going to score

Because he's a fucking thick idiot, I thought we'd all established that by now? :-)

[Goldie.7]

29 more minutes of pure shite.

Same old rubbish.

How can you have 4 central midfielders playing when you have options.

Expecting Alan Hutton to run all day up and down and being your only option to attack is pathetic. Crossing from the middle of the pitch will never give the attackers the type of chances they need.

When you have not scored a league goal all season what team do you want to come up against? Aston Villa of course !

Gabby's crap.

[PaulWinch again]

Garbage.

[Jimbo]

I can't take much more of this utter, utter crap.

[Tuscans]

I wish Gabby wasn't a Villa fan, one of the worst forwards in the league

If we could only play ourselves.......

Lambert has bottled it yet again. I beg the lord he is fired soon.

It's been that way from day one, since Lambert arrived. One of the reasons we shipped so many goals was because Lowton and Luna or Bennett were constantly caught upfield and out of position. Now Hutton and Cissokho are more competent defenders and don't take as many risks, so we're tighter at the back, but we still have no other consistent attacking threat whatsoever.

It's fucking clueless.

[Summers]

A back four with wingbacks is fucking ridiculous without a sort of half back in midfield.

Even so, it only works very well with three centre backs.

Lambert is clueless.
