Liverpool Post Match Thread

[Gray]

Aston Villa's last 8 matches LLLLLLDL.

We were the draw anybody that couldn't see we had problems after that game must be blind.

Well beaten today and more to come when you play lazy midfielders and slow defenders.

As somebody else said we have not played well all season and the results have flattered us.

We are also getting far too many of our crucial players regularly injured.

selection was questionable before to many and in the end proved to be exactly that, no excuses can be made. We made an average mid table team look like a class top 4 team

Can anyone remember the last time we got dicked at home like that? Is it our worst home result in the league since we moved into the stadium?

Which surely says we are doing something right

Not posted for a while, but......

What i don't understand is most posters tonight, me included could see as soon as the line ups were revealed, that we would get over run in midfield with a 2 v 3. This made even worse when that 2 has limited mobility in Toure and Fernando. Why could Pellers not see that?

Additionally MDM is without doubt well past his best and Mangala (his mind might have not been on it), needs firm leadership to be part of a good CD partnership.

A few posters have had a go at Hart tonight, yes he came out rashly on a few occasions, but I think think that is driven by his lack of confidence in what is front of him. Without him, we could and probably should have conceded at least 2/3 more.

Anyhow, you think you have got it bad, my sister is a season ticket holder at Klanfield and all my family are candle worshippers. i have so far ignored her 6/7 texts as i probably should not call my sister a ****.

I had 30 years plus of taking shit from Dippers and the Rags and thought it was all over, oh well! :-(

Utter shite just about sums it up

Horrible wasn't it?

And you are normally very positive.

Out paced all game - by a Liverpool team that were more than willing to work at winning. We weren't. We adopt a predictable 'steady pace' approach to games, regardless of the opposition, and we come unstuck far too often.

When Liverpool won the ball in midfield, their entire team knew the plan - break with pace. On the rare occasion we had the ball, we played a pedestrian game again - except Liverpool were on top of us so quickly, it forced countless errors from us.

The number of goal kicks and throw-ins when we are struggling to find a City player who wants the ball is worrying.

Yaya can do some amazing things, but those amazing moments are so few and far between, they are starting to come at the expense of a very weak midfield.

Liverpool were very very good today, and we can't take anything away from the job they did.

It's beginning to look like any team willing to put in a a real shift against us stands a chance of getting something from the game, and woe betide us if we are less than 100% - in that case, we stand to lose. All the skill and flair in the world will only get us so far. We're lacking in grit and guile.

Agree with this and the worst of it all is that today never came as much of a surprise.

We could have been 2 or 3 down to Newcastle. We could have conceded more to Bournemouth. We could have been 2 or 3 down at home to Sevilla.

Winning those games, and in the end emphatically in the case of the league games, papered over huge cracks.

A better side than bournemouth and newcastle would have had us on a plate in each of the above games.

Tonight was much of the same only this time we did meet a better side in Liverpool and they well and truly took advantage.

As did Spurs at the lane.

We are but our form is dipping dramatically. It needs picking up quickly. 11 points out of 24 is not good.

Well Dave Ewing
All i can i say then is
City still never fail to amaze me
Winlose or draw

Looking on the bright(ish) side; I have an excuse not to stay up to watch MOTD tonight. A cup of Horlicks, a quick half an hour on youporn ebay and then a good night's kip. Lovely. Thanks Manuel.

Grow a pair and watch motd. Fuck me we can't have it all our own way. Win or lose have a booze remember? We got to embrace the defeats as well as the wins. Ducking away from the bad games isn't what we're about.

Please get a grip people, let's see where we finish.

Not much can be done either way at that stage. let's not fanny about and pull the trigger, something that should have been done at the end of last season.
