I'm not saying we played great (and in the second half we definatley didn't) but var and the ref spent a fucking age looking at a handball and they still got it wrong. Some calming done and perspective is needed. (Blimey. I sound like footy).
Steven Gerrard: "The players need to pull together to find this consistency. The big moments went against us today. [Digne handball] was harsh, I'm not sure what else he could have done. I've got full confidence with this group."No Steven. We were completely outplayed. Our goal aside the big, small and in between moments went against us. What the fuck were you watching?
Didnt see it but listened to whole game on talkshite 2. They sounded the better team, so f we go 2-1 up from Bailey who knows, but they sounded like they were slicing through our midfield. Perry Groves co-commentating, said their offside goal was offside, bit their penalty was in no way a penalty, later on he also said we were dire and the main difference in the sides was Palace looked well coached and that the Villa players didn’t look like they had a clue what they were supposed to be doing. Pretty damming unfortunately. Could of really done with a point at least with the three league games coming up, unless something radically clicks into gear starting to look a bit iffy. Fooking all a load of shite.

Some calming done and perspective is needed. Welcome to modern football, it's all gone a bit AFTV on here.
Who watches football calmly and with perspective?
The writing might not be on the wall yet but Bansky is getting his aresoles out. The problem is are midfield has been shite for years - and massively upgrading has to be done. We should have gone all in on JWP or bissoma last year. The only teams we have beat in the last 13 are a Burnley, Norwich and an injury ravaged Everton. We simply must get something from one of the next 3 otherwise I think he’ll be mortally wounded - I think will sick with him til at least the World Cup as I think there is too much invested in him - but if I was Nas or Wes I would be on the phone to Poch offering to make him the best paid manager in the world. What’s so annoying is how completely predictable this all is. We’ve had one manager in the last 12 years that has made us better. And we sacked him when he served up the shite SG is now with a weaker squad
