Liverpool vs Aston Villa post match thread

[silhillvilla]

Sherwood could one day be a decent manager but he needs to go down the leagues and learn the ropes.

[Toronto Villa]

The interview proves he's lost the fucking plot. It's fucking September and the season is a write off. Jesus Christ. I told myself I wouldn't get angry but he's managed to piss me well and truly off. Tosser.

[Rudy65]

Serious question - how long do we give him?

I'd give him another 2 months - that's long enough to see if he can adapt and improve, and if not then it gives a new manager a reasonable amount of time to turn things round (including in the Jan transfer window).

that's too long

Im not one to panic but f me he is turning into a disaster. one win in 10 including last season. there is already a gap opening up above us

[Goldie.7]

They were so weak defensively, Sherwood's cowardly tactics were inexcusable.

How the fuck did Sinclair stay on?

Why the fuck did he take Grealish off?

What the fuck did he think would happen with that stupid 'rope-a-dope' strategy in the first half?

Who the fuck in the coaching staff thinks Westwood should be taking corners?

Where the fuck is our next win coming from?

Grealish was dire today and needed the hook at HT.

Actually if we lose to Stoke I'll probably agree with you!

he was full of sh1t when he arrived and he is full of sh1t as it all goes to hell.

He has no track record and don't get me started on Wilkins. Other than make the tea at Chelsea he has done nothing of any note. Can drink for England though apparently

Tactics, subs, starting 11 - its all rubbish

Ayew must have been walking on water after last Tuesday, so why not start him today. Its not as if Sinclair has been great or cant be dropped.

Clark was awesome second half Tuesday so what does he do, reinstate the carthorse that is Lescott

Pull the plug Fox. He kept us up, but please move on now. We need something better. We have the players to be mid table but a manager who is out of his depth and always was.

[olaftab]

Serious question - how long do we give him?

No more than 3 more games. Unless he gets at least 4 points (yes I know a very low target) we get rid of him. Tim the Chiseler is just good for that nothing else.

[olaftab]

he needs to go down the leagues and learn the ropes.

Yes but not with us.

[devilla]

On top of all this the barcodes are winning against Chelski.

[pauliewalnuts]

It would be easier to understand if this was about players being shit or not gelling, but it isn't, it is about the manager - if he sends them out set up alright, he fucks it up with changes. If he sends them out wrong, he does nothing for far too long, and then changes things too late.

I'd have more patience with him if he didn't talk such a convincing game.

He's a media-friendly bullshitter, and we're now seeing how out of his depth he is.

as it stands, the only team worse than us is Sunderland, FFS.

[pauliewalnuts]

Klopp seems the type who might go to an unfashionable, under achieving team, because that's what he did with Dortmund. But having proved his credentials, the chances of him doing it with Villa are astronomically optimistic.

Klopp said two weeks ago that he appreciates his next job might not be at a "top" club.

I'm not suggesting he is viable or that we should go for him, just pointing it out.

[villadelph]

Is the flick of the switch getting closer? The Stoke game is a must-win next week. Play Adama from the start this time.

 

Who would've though?

[pauliewalnuts]

His post match comments are worrying. Giving it the whole "This season is about staying up, judge me on next year" . Not exactly what he said at the end of last season. We lost two great players but the combined fee received was re-invested and enough to make us a comfortable mid-table side.

That's totally not what he's been saying up till now.

What a wanker. We finished 17th last season, and he's now suggesting that finishing 17th again is what this is all about?

I dislike this bloke more and more.

[SoccerHQ]

He also said "the club decided to bring in young players." so distancing himself from all the signings. If it was up to him he'd have probably broken the bank for Vardy and Andros Townsend.

Grealish was dire today and needed the hook at HT.

He hardly ever got the ball. When he did he looked like doing something, but he had no support.
