Aston Villa v Liverpool Match Thread

Szobo should have been booked, but that was daft by Ollie.

[SamTheMouse]

I think that's one of those things that always gets you booked. Silly by Ollie.

[CT Villan]

Ref is a wanker.

We are playing well, other than Buendia and Rogers giving them the ball too much. We can win this!

[Beard82]

good first half - started and ended well. 

another like that will do

[Goldie.7]

I despise these thugs. Just waiting on that goof Mac Allister to clatter us and receive no card.

[JUAN PABLO]

Better than spurs

Come on villa

Clean sheet .   Champs leaguev

It is silly from Ollie but I fucking hate it when refs are fucking cowards with bookings but then give cheap shit and hide behind being 'by the book'.

[KRS]

Was always going to be a daft booking for Ollie. It’s pretty standard to get booked if you play on after being flagged, ref whistle and put the ball in the net.

Pre season vibe about this. Fine goal but we need to up it. Cash on a yellow not ideal.

[PaulWinch again]

Need to up the intensity in the second half. We were decent for 15 then they were getting on top before our goal. They’re very beatable, but we can’t give them a sniff.

[brontebilly]

Oh Ollie that was double dumb, not watching your offsides and playing on after the whistle...

Shouldn't have been caught offside there. Liverpool defensive line seemed all over the place on that play.

[fredm]

We need to sort out to stop the ball getting to that young kid. They will be playing on Cash this half.

[Villa Lew]

Forget the booking there was absolutely no reason for Ollie to go offside.

[ajmant]

First 15, be strong and no mistakes. As always it’s a game of margins and let’s stay the right side!

[Somniloquism]

I wonder if our momentum stopped because all the players saw Watkins go down with a potential injury and thought of Wednesday suddenly.

Also how come the flag was raised when attacking. Was it so blatantly offside?
