Aston Villa 3-3 Liverpool Post Match breather

[KevinGage]

Gave up his own free time to be there, mind.

If/ when he confuses us us with West Ham as that other great mate Call me Dave did, he'll deserve his invective bubblebath. Until then.

Just seeing the goals now and Duran's second was definitely karma for every bit of bad luck we've had over the last few weeks/months. Pure fluke but we'll have it

How the fuck did Luis Diaz not get booked the fouling little toe rag?!

MacAlister doing GBH on McGinn, ref is looking at it five yards away and then casually just shrugs his shoulders when we're asking where is the yellow at the next break in play?

The top teams are that for a reason but their midfield players don't half get away with clear and obvious tactical fouls that break up play and reduce influence of key players, Bailey was also getting the usual kicks in the first half with no punishment aswell.

That's us fucked then.

Terrific fightback to get the draw: bit reminiscent of the comeback from 3-0 down against Sheffield Utd to get the draw late on in the Championship. Was a night game then too!

Thought John McGinn and Leon Bailey were terrific. I was rooting big time for Ollie to get his 20th goal: hope he can do it Sunday!

[AV84]

Would be great if the pressure was off for them all on Sunday. I reckon he's wanted it too much these last couple of games. Although I suppose he did find the net tonight

I gave a  big cheer watching the game in the pub on about 95 minutes.

Sky showed a Villa fan with a big hair bear bunch hairstyle.

The south London locals were a bit WTF?

But I had a good couple of evenings with him and rest of the Yorkshire Villa when we were playing in Warsaw.

A lovely bunch of gentlemen.

I thought Gakpo was at least a metre offside for their second - presumably I missed something?

Mixed emotions. Feels like a point salvaged but we could have won it at the death with Diaby. But the big one was Carlos in first half - Jesus wept. Hats off to every single one of them for dragging that performance out of tired bodies and for keeping going at 1-3 with five minutes left.

[Clampy]

Yeah, the ref was poor wasn't he? You could tell early in the game he wasn't going to give us much. Was he the one who reffed that Forest v Everton game?

[PeterWithe]

Very mixed emotions, after some very iffy performances we were great going forward and created enough opportunities to win a few matches. Silly mistakes in both penalty areas saw them coasting to a win in second gear. Id have taken a draw beforehand and would have ripped your arm off for one a few minutes into the second half. But also annoyed we missed the chance to put this to bed by missing so many clear chances.

It was similar to the Real onside the other week. He could have stood there all match and not been called offside if the the ball went no where near him. But when the ball finally came he was behind it and being played on by Konsa / Carlos as well. No defender dropped back to mark him.

The good vibes from tonight won't sway Emery and the brains trust about what we need defensively.

We need much less Diego Carlos, to begin with. I wouldn't be totally stunned if we listened to offers for Konsa n'all.

[AV84]

You can understand Carlos going for that, but it's an absolutely shocking miss

[olaftab]

Klopp in his post match interview alluded to the fact that they were being overwhelmed in midfield and he had to make the changes bringing on Gravenberch, Szoboszlai and Nunez. Of course subs made by Unai trumped that with Chambers' absolute central midfield masterclass and Duran ripping them apart.
