Liverpool v Aston Villa

[General Dryness]

I endorse, or diss, posts on merit, not name.

 

I may make an exception in your case ,however;)

 

Worracock indeed. Lawrence "xerxes" Logic.

 

"Diss" should have inverted commas around it in his post, as he doubtless makes them with his fingers when he says it out loud.

[Guest San Don]

He's been playing in some weird wing position hasn't he? He's a natural #9, it's where his strengths are, playing elsewhere would make him look bad.

 

Irrespective of that, he's a very young lad who has time and needs to improve. People calling for him to be put in the first team would be chucking him to the wolves, literally.

 

He's nowhere near ready for the first team.

[Guest San Don]

Its something hes getting badly wrong at the minute in my eyes. There was no need for 3 defenders on the bench. And bringing on the likes of Cole ahead of Suso is just baffling.

 

Its the sort of shit decision making thats been going on for years and at times I've wondered if other factors have been at play when this sort of shit happens. But that aside, I was optimistic for the first part of the season Rodgers would be the man to finally cut the shit out.

 

But he seems to be slipping into the mad decision making that has been the downfall of other Liverpool managers. Hopefully he'll turn it round again.

 

LOL! I just love it when armchair football fans reckon they know more about players than the manager who sees them in training day in, day out. Suso isnt in the team for 2 reasons. He's been relatively ineffective and like sterling, probably needs a rest.

[Guest San Don]

75% of the letters in Phil Babb's surname are B.

 

Football really is a game of percentages isn't it.

 

The point he's making is villa's finishing aka ability to score goals, has been shit all season. Until they played us, that is.

 

Why dont you wise up a minute and study the opposition? Villa have been worse than us all season. They cant score regularly in the league. They put 3 past us with relative ease.

 

I find that appalling myself and not good enough.

[Liverpool lad]

Just please make it stop

Should have changed out the back four - could have by looking at the subs bench.

No it wouldn't.

Dude, mention chelshit.

Does anyone else picture xerxes - having typed one of his trademark pithy putdowns - sat there peering into the smileys list like a confused uncle?

Yes, I get that. The point I was making in response was that three out of four letters in Phil Babb's surname are exactly the same. Fucking sinister or what?

 

Seriously though, I do understand his point and it is fucking atrocious on our part. Its hard to get really annoyed though, as we've been making shit teams look like heroes on a regular basis for the past 20+ years.

I disagree. Suso has been very effective when he's played; his interlinking with Suarez is good, he has ground skill in terms of passing ability, and a head on him. At the Emerates, he was taken off before halftime, when personally, I felt Allen was the weakest link.

 

Allen and Stirling are the blue eyes, at the expense of Suso. The result of using Stirling and Allen week in, week out, is that we've no flexibility, and can't adapt to the different oppositions, and, it also shows there is no actual tactical plan at all. It's kick and hope - a bit like Stirling's one trick pony show.

[John McClane]

nail on head, flexbility. It does not exist with us.

vs Fulham, it will be 4-3-3 again.

 

Why not try something different, surprise them, 4-4-1-1 or 4-1-4-1 or 3-5-2.

Something different.

Don't take this personally, but I've been wondering for a while now what 'literally' means in TLW context: "He literally shat himself", "His head literally exploded" etc.

 

To me, this means that we would buy (or rent?) some wolves, put them in a pit or something, and throw Morgan in. But I can't see why we would do that. Is it part of a new training regime?

[ngogswilly]

I literally don't know.

San Don is literally a spastic.

San Don is literally a spastic.

 

That's literally true.

[Reckoner]

I literally don't know.

Well look here, that made me laugh that did, and I thought I would share that fact with you all. I haven't laughed at all since Saturday afternoon, which was when I also developed a pulsating vein to the right side of my forehead which hasn't yet gone back in. It was around the time Benteke got his second goal that it popped out and reading about the match is making it hurt a bit. I can handle disappointment, it's the hope that kills me.
