Arsenal (H) League Cup - 1/10/20 - 19:45

[ZonkoVille77]

Origi should be slapped for that. Fucking awful. 

 

Spawny Arsenal cunts again. But if you don't take your chances you suffer. 

[Baltar]

Can't say I'm too gutted about going out of this cup but hard on the lads, we were the better team and deserved to win.

[BeefStroganoff]

Maybe if Jurgen had played Shaqiri instead of Wilson we'd be through now.

 

Pisses me off that Origi and Wilson are played ahead of him and we are looking to sell someone is far more useful from reserves than them two.

[magicrat]

Villa better get some serious arsehole ripping on Sunday 

[rubble-rouser]

Their goalie has kept them in the game when our midfield was Jones, Wilson and Grujic. Annoying to go out but the balance between kids and experienced players was about right.

It'll be interesting to see how Wilson fits in.  I've always considered him a decent player, but not necessarily suited to our style.  Mind you, I've not seen that much of him.

I think I've made my mind up.

 

At least we should be able to get some sort of a price for him.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

I’m probably in the minority here, but I thought we played a good game against a fairly strong opponent with a good goalkeeper.

Selling Shaqiri and keeping Wilson is not a smart move

Selling both is

Oh well. Always a shame to go out on penalties, but the fixture congestion meant that it was never likely to be a viable competition. There’s a much, much bigger game at Villa Park on Sunday.

Just seen this thread. Didn’t realise we were playing these cunts again. 

We aren’t. You’ve gone back in time Tony and in the process changed an impressive 3-1 victory into a defeat and a bizarre line-up choice from the manager. Thanks for nothing. 

[AngryOfTuebrook]

I really don't get the apathy around here.

 

We're supposed to be the Champions of Everything.

Wilson's penalty wasn't terrible. Divs was. 

Yep. Hard, low and almost in the corner.

Yeah.  I fucking hate having to worry about winning things.

Then as the song goes, dont worry be happy, the league is ours again, so no biggy.

Just a shame we have some really shite back up players that should not be.

I see the LFC family are rallying a round again.

Sorry. We're not permitted to comment on poor individual performances. They're all amazing and it was the ref's fault.

 

That better?

 

 

[Davelfc]

I'm as pissed we are out as the next person, so on to coping. 

 

The games will come thick and fast this season and I want us to retain the Premier League and have a decent go at the CL. 

 

 

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Origi should have left a hero, after the CL final, like Dudek.

 

Instead, each game is a reminder that the rare important goals are very much the anomalies in his Liverpool career.

[Section_31]

Disappointed but I bet Klopp will be made up.

[Butch]

We need practice pens, don't seem to be very good at it. Not bothered about this, less games to play. Shaq should have played. Jota looks dangerous. 

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Rhys Williams did well tonight. Didn't do much wrong. I think Wilson definitely won't make it in to the first team squad. Seems way short of the required level. Curtis Jones didn't have the best game either. And, Origi, I love him for some of the goals he's scored, but he was utter pish. Don't think he ran once all night. Not even for his penalty. Getting Jota in was a wise move. Origi is just too hot and cold to be the back up option. I'd probably rather keep hold of Brewster than Origi. 

 

It's not the end of the world as it's not a priority competition, but it would've been nice to get to the quarters and see what happened from there on in. 

 

Oh, and short run up penalties suck arse.

True.

But losing fucking hurts.

He’s in the process of being sold and given his injury record it wasn’t an unreasonable move.

[El Rojo]

Curtis Jones is absolutely fearless. Great penalty from him again. Could see this kid trying a Panenka in a European Cup Final shoot-our.

Winning everything you enter should be the aim.

 

We haven't tried to win a domestic cup comp in years and it's shite.

Yep. Even with a player making their first start in an unfamiliar position.
