Liverpool vs Aston Villa post match thread
« on: July 05, 2020, 06:23:16 PM »
The score isn’t final but the outcome is. We played better than I thought we would but in the end we were never going to be good enough. We have literally nothing up front, no quality to get the forwards the ball. Jack has been kicked and marked out of all games now. Every team knows that let alone the very best one of all. Today won’t have determined our season. We’ve failed all along the way.

I’m going to stick to my opinion...

Last season was too early for us to get promoted. We needed the extra season to rebuild, gain understanding and develop. Sadly, we can’t do that in the Premier League. Coupled that with a dreadful transfer policy, money spunked all up the walls on what is effectively garbage...

If we get relegated again, it will be time to rebuild. Again.

Put alot of effort in, but we're just boring as fuck with no threat going forward.

Like many games this season, we do enough against the top teams to take points but game management lets us down time and time again.it has proven to be Smiths and our Achilles heel.

Played well, deserved more. Lack of quality up front costs us again.

Depressingly inevitable.

Our defence is incapable of maintaining concentration for 90 minutes, and up front we have all the pace of an asthmatic sloth on sleeping pills.

Whatever division we end up in next season, they'd better sign some players who can fucking run.

Not going to be this game that relegates us, it will be the many other games where we took nothing.

Manager clueless, should have gone ages ago but didn't.

So here we are looking at an awful run in, labouring away with hopeless wingers, zero pace and a striker who has almost never actually scored.

I fucking hope the owners don't decide they've had enough, that's all I can say.

Lost 2-0 to the best team in the country. I expected us to get battered. Toothless up front and relatively shaky at the back. Why he persists with Davis I just don't understand.

A valiant effort but did we really ever look as if we had the conviction to score. No wins in 9 games speaks volumes, we are probably in the wrong division. As previously mentioned player recruitment since promotion, has, in the main bern sub optimal.

We looked fairly accomplished in many respects, but we're so lightweight upfront and it says something when you have a choice of Jota to come on and leave Trezeguet on the pitch for 80 minutes, or so.
Poor recruitment and no depth in the squad has done for us this season.

He's absolutely nowhere near good enough for this league

Were were bravely holding on until the 3 quarter break.
In that break their manager showed his quality, tells his player to stop fucking about and show theirs.

Played better than expected, but still lost to a Liverpool side (as expected), on a victory lap.
We’ll get relegated because of the failure to bring a replacement for Tammy in. Blunt up front.
Plus points - Luiz continues to impress, and McGinn is showing improvement.
