Ressies vs Villa

[gkmacca]

I always feel a bit sorry for Irwin - he never gives less than 100%, but he's so willing to play anywhere he's reached this stage without looking established. A good player to have in the team, though.

 

 

Great goal from Silva!

[Allan]

3-1, Silva. Nice run, and a cool finish.

[Dante]

Silky stuff from Silva.

[Pidge]

My stream got fucked up somehow... Villa just scored a carbon copy of their third... it was their third. I refresh and miss Silva's goal.

[lifetime fan]

Pretty much what gkmacca says below.

 

 

 

If there is one player that can make the very highest grade, International level, then in my opinion it will be Andre.

 

Pace, power, composure and now leadership. He still has some aspects to improve, but he's only 17 and seeing how he has developed so far, I have no doubts that he will improve year on year.

 

He has the potential to be the player Micah Richards could have been.

irwin ? nowhere near good enough, good hearted lad but so limited

My point was he's been so versatile he hasn't really had a chance to show his potential anywhere (I bet he proves better than Warnock at least!), but that's another definitive dismissal from you!

That shot of Bradley, Shelvey and the ref just b4 half time looked like a publicity shot for the Children's leukeamia society

 

This is the funniest post Iv read in ages.

 

Quality

[HJohal]

Conor Thomas, the highly-rated lad we are looking to sign from Coventry has made a difference.

[BurtReynolds]

Ngog? would we get a Mars bar in return for him? Shocking tonight

[Pidge]

Michael Bradley has set the defensive agenda for the whole team, play the man not the ball.

[gkmacca]

The person who seems most out of his depth is the bloody ref.

[Allan]

Mendy hits the woodwork with a cross.

 

We're starting to play our way into the game a bit more. Silva especially has done well for us second half.

[gkmacca]

Frustrating that Suso has spent most of the game so deep. He's still played some clever passes though.

[BurtReynolds]

Thoughts on Ngog?

[HJohal]

Thoughts on Ngog?

 

Has talent but seems to lack conviction which is evident by the way he is knocked off the ball so easily.

[Pidge]

Awful. Looks out of depth at reserve level. Clark is shite and Baker is a classy but inexperienced player but N'Gog can't even threaten them.

[Dante]

Thoughts on Ngog?

 

Three legged giraffe on crack would have better control.

[BurtReynolds]

Tony Silva no right foot

[gkmacca]

Awful. Looks out of depth at reserve level. Clark is shite and Baker is a classy but inexperienced player but N'Gog can't even threaten them.

 

He also does zero off the ball. A great striker like Rush harried and harried until he forced an error and created a chance for himself. NGog just watches and waits. It's incredibly exasperating.

[gkmacca]

Tony Silva no right foot

 

Well he's scored with it in the past. Jeez!

[Pidge]

Amazing to see a team go three up and then decide to do nothing but kick the opposition. Well, Ince puts one of the early ones away and the ref gives the clear foul by Clark and it's 3-3.

 

Not a surprise that Albrighton in the hole caused such havoc as Wisdom and Regan will be used to having a DM and we didn't have one today. Thomas came on and added a bit more defensive presence, but Roberts isn't going to give you a battler or track a player in the hole all day.

 

Hopefully Suso was watching Albrighton as he needs to be more mobile in these games.

[HJohal]

Good game - the kind of experience these players need, i.e big stadium, playing against better class opposition, will benefit the young liverpool team in the long run.

[Allan]

Fulltime. Villa 3 (Gardner 2 (1 pen), Albrighton) Liverpool 1 (Silva)

 

Better showing second half, though we were sorely lacking a killer instinct in and around the Villa area.

 

I thought Toni Silva picked up his game second half, and even more so after he'd scored what was a very good goal.

Conor Thomas, the highly-rated lad we are looking to sign from Coventry has made a difference.

The difference was Shelvey going off
