Aston Villa v Liverpool Post-Match Thread

[Nev]

I want the Chelsea game to be tomorrow and that's a measure of how well we did tonight, in the context of the season, how good they are and how the ref let them take throw ins and free kicks from wherever they wanted.

I've just heard the Slot interview on TS (interviewed by Tom Ross) during which the Liverpool manager said:
We created our only chance on 95 mins.
Questioned whether we have fireworks because we are playing Liverpool or are sold out for the same reason and that injured players declare themselves fit because they want to play Liverpool.

He is an absolutely massive wanker.

Yes I heard him.
Total entitled twat.

There were people doubting the fact that Slott is a complete wanker on here only a few weeks ago.
Now we are seeing what a total good bag he is , he could not have got the job without being a twat.

I always enjoy reading Bronte scorecard, but some of tonight's scores were way off the Mark, no way Desai was a 4.
One time he held the line and should have followed the man in the first half almost gave away a goal, but not alone there.
With our injuries it is hard to be critical, sadly I think that when others are fit Mings will be slipping down the order, crazy fuck up saved by Emi

Thought our back 4, apart from Digne were all over the place. Spaces between them, when to push up, when to drop off. Maybe it's to be expected with the constant changes back there, no Kamara in front of them, but it's every game. Maybe I'm being a bit harsh on Disasi, Mings was a lot worse looking back.

I'll tell you, honestly. I would love it if we knocked them out of the Champions League. Love it!

Martinez:8
Great Sweeping up , Class presence in goal.

Garcia:5.5
Shocking pass give away for goal , good learning experience for him to play has a .5 off

Disasi: 7.5
Enjoyed his attacking foray down the left and galvanising crowd . shows composure on ball

Mings: 6.5
Near Calamity but was generally solid and pushed at end up on the left side attack -helping create a chance

Digne:7
Lovely Cross for goal , lack of needless fouls.

McGinn:7
always puts the effort in despite a struggle on the ball in possession at times in first 15 or so minutes became a driving force aiding the team and actually getting involved

Tielemans:7.5
grew into game and best midfielder on the pitch, was available and showing for the ball

Rogers: 6.5
His best work came in second half but another poor miss the target and finishing

Rashford:6.5
Fair and showed glimpses like nice nut meg on mcalister but fouled in process , should have scored or created chance when best Alison to ball but failed with effort at goal, gave a couple of careless passes and balls in that went out of play but mixed in with visible effort and class touches. Exciting player who want to see more of starting in team.

Asensio: 6 Rightfully subbed of. A great player though and will find his match sharpness want to see him given more freedom to create and chance to shoot. Given no opportunities to shoot today
also could have made some telling passing but lacked accuracy and intercepted. unlucky in some respects still a class act

Malen: 6.5
Lively and actually should have scored or at least hit target at final moments .5 mark off for not scoring

Cash:6
Solid tackle flying in and made it otherwise a booking but in final minutes there was lack of composure and footy intelligence ideas led to wild shot when could have continued build up play Emery and I don’t like this

Ramsey: 7.5
Creative and actually scored his one and one with nice finish. american VAR decided not to give it

Maatsen:7
I thought carried the fight and willingness to attack.
i like how he scurries forward with the ball and offers something offensively

Bogarde N/A
not enough time to warrant a mark but invaluable experience and have trust in him . solid player.

Ref Slot comments I heard his general press conf and also pitch side interview and I thought he was very complimentary of us whilst slaughtering Nunez. 

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

Go back to playing darts, you twat.

[olaftab]

We don’t lose big games when McGinn is on song.

[Nev]

Ref Slot comments I heard his general press conf and also pitch side interview and I thought he was very complimentary of us whilst slaughtering Nunez.

He was complimentary about us at first in the interview I heard. His other comments were juvenile, pathetic and had all the hallmarks of someone who is unable to accept a result not going his way.

The massive wanker.

[Bent Neilsens Screamer]

Martinez 7 - couple of unbelievable saves but shaky at set pieces
Garcia 5 - awful mistake punished for opener. Spoiled a decent first half from him
Disasi 4 - not sure about this lad at all, Mings seemed to be doing a lot of covering at front post
Mings 4 - more evidence sadly that he's done at this level. That mistake at end was surreal, ball like a 50p piece at his feet
Digne 6 - great assist and battled as best he could v Salah
McGinn 7 - awful start losing ball twice in first 5 mins, showed great leadership afterwards I thought
Tielemans 7 - anonymous early on too but brave in possession I thought
Rogers 6 - awful on right and fortunate not replaced but transformed back in his best spot
Rashford 4 - some nice moments in first half but bad habits reappeared early in second
Asensio 4 - Coutinho vibes, lovely touches but stamina non existent
Watkins 7 - outstanding goal, battled hard with limited support at times

Like the look of Malen, Cash and Ramsey made a huge difference, Maatsen needs a summer in gym

Tough crowd.

Maybe I'm getting mixed up, but I'm sure Brontesaurus didn't give a rating over 7/10 when we beat them 7-2.

[VillaTim]

The ingredients look good , Garcia looks a great player in the making , well done Monchi.
Malen is going to be a great signing once settled .
We are going through a few rough waves at the moment but once we come out I think we'll be flying .

Bloody all deflected shots, weren't they? Shouldn't count.

I'd agree with that tonight, tbf. ☹️
