Liverpool vs Aston Villa post match thread

[Rudy Can't Fail]

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.

Sounds like Liverpool then. They're all convinced he'll be replacing Brenda.

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

Why 'one day'? Not sure what he has done to suggest being good in the future

[mr woo]

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.

Not only trying to pass the buck but factually incorrect. Unless you consider Lescott, Richards, Crespo, Gestede and Gueye as 'kids'.

[Villatillidie1982]

Clark has done well when he has played but Sherwood continues with Richards and Lescott who were both good players once but maybe not now. Richards is a right back or was and is not a centre back.

Haven't seen the game but why can't Villa perform for the whole game instead of just part of it?

Tim Sherwood said in March:

If we get out of this situation this season, we aren't going to be in it next year. Never. Because I will have the opportunity to build something and I won't let that happen again.

Tim don't half talk some bollocks.

Richards is a very good centre-half for a club at our level. He is probably a better right-back, but then who else would play centre-half if Clark replaces Lescott?

What pisses me off about that is that despite the three points we gift-wrapped them today, the team most likely to replace their manager with Jurgen Klopp is Liverpool.

We've generally Been having a half decent 45 mins per game.
Today we only managed 20 mins .

I have just heard Sherwoods post match interview and am fucking disgusted.

He appears to have written the season off, and we are not even out of September.

'Judge me in season 2016/17 '

Fuck off.

Come on we didn't think we would beat Liverpool today based on our form so far this season .  The Stoke game is a must win because we have Chelsea to follow, I'm usually all for giving Managers more time but we've done this with the previous manager and it really didn't work.  I think the least we can expect is a win in the next three games, if we don't we will be cut adrift.  I would then let this Manager go unless we've taken the decision stay with come what may.

AGAIN!

what the fuck is Wilkins doing?

Looking fat with a smug grin on his face. Also saying words like "delighted" and "marvellous" a lot

...and getting paid top dollar for impersonating a barrel

[russon]

Geez it's depressing being a Villa fan. Five years of rubbish. Time to pull the plug. We're doomed this year.
Sherwood out.

that's the spirit!

The problem today was not the centre backs, it started before the game with the wrong team selection, then the three centre midfielders were ball watching in the first minute to give Milner all that space. Sanchez was the best midfielder IMO, yet knew it would be him who got the hook. The manager needs to look at his own actions. I got stick for going on about his selection the other night, he got away with it against a piss poor side who passed the ball around the park better than us in the first half. I really thought there was a chance to go 3-5-2 today to mirror their team and not give them the space they loved.
