Liverpool v Aston Villa 16:00 Sunday Match Thread

PHB

Respond to United dropping points to Fulham. I thought that was fairly obvious?

Boggles

Will go for a tight draw 1-1. Torres and Barry.

grames_bond

wit this being a great weekend for irish sport, maybe some of the irish luck will shine down on martin o'neill!

i think thats the only chance villa have tbh.....i think itll be 2-0 to pool!

redout

So if Pool fail to win today have they blown it or will they get another chance ? Hiddink hinted Chelsea could have blown it yesterday after their loss.

The question will then be asked: how many chances do Liverpool need? If they don't win today, I'm of the opinion that don't deserve to by champions, becaue these are the games champions need to win.

ferdi

if liverpool play crap i may fill my pants.

Except Liverpool. We dont deserve any trophy, we are always lucky.

Christ almighty why did we have to have this fixture now, it's the last thing Villa need tbh especially after Pool stuffing United only last week.

I'm not confident at all but you can never write off O'Neill. I'd take a point and run tbh.

jesus_thats_gre

Things are going that well for Liverpool at the moment that I can see Villa getting a result

mike65

Liverpool are crap, Lucas + Dossena not FTW, Yossi smells etc.

invincibleirish

MON will revert hopefully back to 451, the crowd and pressure will be on Pool to get in front early. If Villa can avoid conceding an early goal then i'm confident of Villa picking up a point at least.

I'm glad this is an away fixture for the villa. With luck Liverpool might feel more pressure to attack after yesterdays result. I think this is the type of game that suits us compared to the type of game which has resulted in our poor results of late.

I am not sure if you mean that going to Anfield needing a win suits Villa but Villa needing the win to keep up with Villa certainly suits Liverpool at home..

Not that I consider Villa in anywhere near the same bracket but Liverpool's only real shortcoming this season has been in relegation fodder coming to Anfield being more than happy to put 10 behind the ball and settle for a draw.

Liverpool should have enough about them to beat a Villa team that badly need a win at Anfield. Not sure that they will though

sportswear

hope liverpool destroy them. can't see anything else tbh.
torres on form, at home, nobody needs resting. all out for blood.

benayoun is back now isn't he? wouldn't mind seeing him play, before he got injured he was running riot.

whatawaster

i'm reading on other forums that Xabi still isn't fully fit and will be on the bench

mike65

Team in -

Reina, Arbeloa, Skrtel, Carragher, Aurelio, Alonso, Mascherano, Gerrard, Riera, Kuyt, Torres. Subs: Cavalieri, Hyypia, Agger, Ngog, El Zhar, Dossena, Lucas.

Reina

Arbeloa
Carra
Skrtel
Aurelio

Alonso
Mascherano
Gerrard

Riera

Torres


Subs: Cavalieri, Hyppia, Agger, N'gog, El Zhar, Dossena, Lucas

So Xabi is back, good news.

Would have played Dossena instead of Riera tbh. I wonder is Babel injured.

So you think that Liverpool on an all out attack will be good for Villa?
I think that this is exactly what will happen but i'd be surprised to hear this opinion from many villa fans.
It's been wokling pretty well for Liverpool lately,it's not as if there having trouble scoring goals.

invincibleirish

Heskey & Carew up front for Villa

Friedel/NRC/Young/Davies/CC/Barry/Petrov/Young/Milner/Heskey/Carew

Disappointed I did not get to the game but the money I get from working will pay for the rest of the games for the season.
