See what i mean ? U split their defense , u got more chances .... now 1-2 .
penalty and a goal. lolololol
what to do , our skipper really miscue that one .....
76 minutes .... not likely to have any goals .
Villa totally back into defense liao .
why is benitez sending the team to try to smash villa down the centre?
blame me, not benitez.
i;ve never won a single bet with pool in it.
NEVER
our current setup ..... i really dun think it's Championship material .
The likes of Insua , Lucas , Ngogu , Babel , Voronin are those players that i dun think can deliver us any special trophy .
I dun see any playmaker for Liverpool in this match ....
I thought Dossena can be better than INSUA ?
I think in this sort of matches , we need someone like Crouch or Heskey , those towering forwards , to torment their defense .
Funny to see Liverpool kept dumping the ball into the box knowing Villa has got 7 6-footers inside the box .
FT 1-3 .
Played 3 , win 1 , lost 2 .
Very unfamiliar sightings ...
Maybe the Liverpool players protesting the defeat to the 2 Yankees .
We sold Alonso , Arbeloa , and was promised £32million for transfer , and yet we only got Johnson , contra with Crouch otang , and that Greek Fella ....
If i am one of the players or Benitez , i will try not to get into UCL , or even relegated , and the 2 Yankees guarantee bankrupt .
To devalue Liverpool , dun get into the UCL , will guarantee that value - down !!!
not a very smart thing to do by the players and manager if thats what they're really thinking.
They can be replaced anytime.
Pool are in shitty luck, tads all.

so i think villa should at least get a goal
1-3 for Liverpool win.
lol you its the other way round. villa won 3-1
If Liverpool continue this form, the manager have to take responsibility.
We cannot be playing with a new team every start of the season.
Liverpool have sufficient players to use different tactics.
But, why are we still losing the game ?
Ah Ben is no longer new to the EPL.
It is time he delivere the results since he have full control of the sale and purchase of the players.
Or else he can packed his bag and go.
No point giving him cash if he dun have a eye for good players.
i am a clone , as usual got edited my post .
They have to play well since day one.
So far, they are showing mid table form with defeat to spur and villa.
With any injury, Liverpool can forget about champion league next year unless Ah Ben start using the money to buy some competent players.
Or else he can go for early retirement.
i personally don't see anything wrong with insua
but i do feel that something wrong with lucas, he slows the game down when its time to counter attack, cock up passing, cock up positioning...
and something is confirm wrong with the tactics today
liverpool keep charging down the centre, the wingers keep running inwards... and the entire villa team is in the centre.
As a football fan, is it not ground hog day when you see this happened for the last few seasons already ?
Ah Ben have overstayed and it is time for him to be replaced.
As for the players, if he cannot bring the diamond out of decent players and dwell on lousy players that he like, then how to win any match ?
We have enough of roller-coaster ride.
The heart is growing too old for any more break.
it's never going to be manager's fault , the players are to be blame .
To change a manager , means a new start , a new budget , a new style from scratch .
We just do not have those luxuries .
I have to take it that this is not the season for Liverpool .
if Lucas are playing , we are not going to win anything .
U dun win things with kids .
and again, Liverpool loses on purpose, and i wonder how r they gonna win though
losing Alonso aside...the squad is too thin to mount serious challenges to the other 3.
Just my tots for an unbiased discussion,
IMHO, Liverpool is the most stable of last season top 4, after pre-season.
They do not have a new manager like Chelsea with a new diamond formation, they did not lose their top scorer, like MU with Ronaldo, they did not lose one of their top scorer plus top defenders like Gunners with Toure and Ade. So excuse?
Pool no money? MU bought Valencia, and signed a free agent, Owen. Chelsea? has not even played the new signing yet. Gunners a defender same as Pool.
Injury? Torres and Gerrard started for the 3 games right? Last season, these twin terrors were raining fear into any club.
Players fault? They only execute to what they are asked. They trained to what they are asked.
Owners fault? They did get Pool the most expensive right back in the world in Glen Johnson.
Managers' fault? Rafa? the untouchable? Did he devise the formation? Did he devise the plays?Did he let Xabi go? Can Rafa hold his glasses and say the 4th official is "immature" again?
Well, 2 losses. Last season,Liverpool only suffered 2 losses and got their best performance since the EPL was formed. Already 6pts behind leaders. Can they handle one more loss?Will they pack up their season even before Christmas?
They have yet to meet the big boys yet. But faithfuls, Torres stated, it is easy playing them so why worry..

wow, "u dun win things with kids", U echoing Mark Lawerson's comment when he saw what MU did when they rolled out their fledgings?
don't get burn...
I think I said somewhere if Liverpool finishh outside top 4, Ill eat my own shit. Looks like I may have to prepare salt and pepper and wasabi to season it.
It was always going to be dangerous with villa going through a bad patch. They bounce back with a good win. But I just didnt expect them to get anything out of this match.
We really miss Alonso. And his replacement Aqualini is injured. I have a suggestion, play gerrard in midfield beside Mascherano and Voronin partner Torres upfront. At leasst until the new guy is ready.

Wenger scores and wins with kids...
Just that their squad not deep enough...
Liverpool's problem, i still think lies with manager...
He seems to have a liking for Lucas, and too dependent on Gerrard..
Playing Gerrard wide is good, but once a team manages to lock him down, they almost shut down the whole defence.
