Liverpool vs Aston Villa Match Thread

Really worried that if Liverpool struggle again in the second half to score that they will be gifted a soft-pen for all the moaning they've done for not getting any in the first half. A bit like Citeh-Wolves earlier.

With his yellow I think it would be a good chance to get Nakamba off at half time as he looks a nailed on red card. Get Sanson on and try play through midfield a bit more. Nakamba is so limited with the ball it's really hurting us to play through midfield. On the few occasions we have attacked, their keeper looks a bit iffy.
Cash is getting mauled at times down our right but a lot of time it's due to his poor positioning and horrible habit of going to ground. Great save by Emi before half time.

Klopp is undoubtedly a great coach, but he's also a proper twat.

ref has been pretty good so far but we still hae 2 yellow cards having only committed 2 fouls. The Mane penalty claim should've been a booking for him as well, blatent dive.

I can scarcely believe we made it to half-time. It's almost embarrassing how much better they are.

I don’t think it’s embarrassing. It’s just a fact that they have better players, have spent a lot of money much of it very well and have a tremendous coach. And it’s years in the making. He didn’t have success overnight. Whereas we have spent the better part of a decade scraping the bottom of the barrel. But we have to build over time and invest well and create the right culture. And we have someone who understands success from his playing days now as manager. It’s whether or not he transfer that into this part of his career and to the players. It’s a massive task to bridge the gap.

It looks like Gerrard has come for the 0-0. I think that's a mistake if so.

Great defending by Tyrone.
