So why play mane salah Henderson fabinho milner ?

his weekly paycheque overpowers the urge to cry.

You donā€™t think ending a 30-year league title drought was a bit more challenging than coming out of a one-month slump?

lot of other things as well, thereā€™s no swagger , no press ,no intensity and worse the winning mentality is going down the drain.

Darke is literally a Man U fan. Heā€™s worked for ESPN for years and has made no attempts to hide the fact that heā€™s a United supporter. The cunt.

the commentary is infuriating. I get that villa are playing well but not everything is david v goliath. Our front three should be firing against these, no doubt, but weā€™re playing a baby defence as well.

Front three were dreadful, no creativity from the middle of the park either, Williams is too slow at this level. That sums it up for me. Villas 1st team would have hammered a performance like that.

If we go out, we go out to a top side, or we go out with our youth side. We donā€™t go out with out best 11 to a youth side.

No LFC side ever lives that down.

We have to win this.

Jesus needing Thiago, sunk to new lows. Hopefully the rocket Hendo needs being subbed, poor show from him.

BANG OUT OF ORDER.
Sort yourself out or clear off.

Weā€™ve been rubbish, even though we should have scored about 4. Salahā€™s profligacy in front of goal is really hurting us. Giniā€™s chance was embarrassing for him. Terrible decision to try and lob the goalie from there.

Midfield has been pedestrian. Taki is terrible. The ball just pings off his feet. And he turns back all the time.

Obviously we thought we could play this at snails pace. Need to be ruthless now.

I do think we are being a bit precious not expecting the commentators to be praising a team of largely teenagers putting in a shift against the League Champions.

As IndianScouser says, its not something we can afford now. If we had played our kids then iā€™d have happily seen us go out. I wont be too unhappy if we do now but the confidence wreckage that will leave is too much. We have UTD next week, dont want to face them after losing this with a full team.

Why Hendo though?

well our Captain wasnt doing a great job

Could have been anyone of 10 to come off. But Hendo was particularly awful.

This must be extremely demoralising for Hendo

Villa kids giggling.
If this team doesnā€™t whiplash them 2nd half id be disappointed
