Sucker punched ,

The one player on the planet you don't want to see the ball breaking too .

Hard luck Villa ,ye did enough to get something out off the game ,
As for Liverpool ,ye got a lucky break in the end but still think most fans would have been happy enough with that performance even without the goal,

Liverpool got lucky they didn't play well that Aqua man is never going to replace Alonso Gerrard and Torres can only get you so far. Villa will be right up there for 4th and again I say imo this will Drive Villa on

They won't be too far off but ye ain't gonna be in the champions league next year.

Unlucky for villa at the end, us liverpool fans know how that feels this season.

Kuyt needs to be rested:rolleyes: permanently imo, he couldnt create a trifle dessert with 3 buckets of sponge, jelly and custard, never mind a chance for torres. The great man worth his weight in gold with the finish. Give babel or pacheco 3/4 games on the trot, and i mean on the trot instead of kuyt, both those lads need football and kuyt needs a kick up the hole, dropping him for a few games might just rejuvenate him.

I have NEVER said we will I said 2 weeks Liverpool were favourites for it imo but Man City and Spurs have big squads and god knows who City could buy in Jan.

My point is Liverpool got Lucky they did NOT win the game because they have started playing well, Villa were very unlucky and nothing in that game says we won't be in the race come the end of the season

Those last 2 results will break Villa hearts IMO, same old story I'm afraid.

Between City, Pool and Spurs now.

Pool for me, quite handily, you can't beat experience. Spurs are too inconsistent and City being City will f*ck it up somehow.

I'm ****ing sickened here but what a complete overreaction. You only have to look at the table to see why that is a bull**** thing to say.

coco06

good to see benni go in for that challenge and ball fell nicely to nando.. in fergy time too..

quality wasnt great but 2 points behind is better than 8.

You got a lucky goal in the dying seconds after a ton of drama with your keeper needing his boots replaced. Liverpool played terrible apart from Torres finish. If you beat spurs then maybe your season will be revived but if yee are relying on luck and a fit Torres then don't be so confident.

Your best striker couldn't put the ball away when it mattered. Ours could.

Nothing to do with luck.

Are you having a problem reading my posts??? What would you be betting against that Villa will be in with a chance of getting 4th??

Mr Alan

delightful.

Stargate

What a weird patch of play .....Yossi Benyoun gets robbed from behind , defender slips , balls breaks to Benyoun , ball squirts out to torres ...........bang GOAL !!!! If Yossi Benyoun didnt go into THAT tackle for the ball at that very moment it would have ended in a draw , a massive 3 points , from someone at last showing a bit of effort to get to the ball instead of funking out of the Challenge

Yes.

Two defeats in three days doesn't drive a team on.

Based on that performance, both teams deserved zero points.

.....................................


personally I do believe that if 3 points were to be awarded villa deserved them more and had a lot more clear cut chances then liverpool. reina played excellently though and a bit more luck and villa could have taken this. as mike said though, when you have someone like torres (who was shut out all game by richard dunne ) you always have an opportunity to win a match.
still problems in liverpools game. concentration and lack of width being the most obvious here

'Hmm, played poorly but scored a late goal, wow, did Rooney get it yeah? Quality player him, that's why I reckon United will win the league, even when they don't play well, they still get the result, you know?'

'Yeah man, but it was Liverpool, Torres got it.'

'Pah, two man shower of jammy luck box scousers, they've no chance of coming fourth if they need a bit of luck to beat Villa.'

Very often teams who lose in the last minute to a lucky game dig and it drives them on, MON is not the best manager in the league by any stretch but he imo is the best man manager and best at getting the most from him players, he will use this to drive them on.

Villa beat Pool at Anfield and Pool beat Villa at Villa park and Villa are 2 points ahead of Liverpool after 20 games, if you offered me that in August I would have laughed and taken hand and all.

How in gods name do you think Villa 'fully deserved' a win?

Oh yeah, United fan trolling,lol.

The game was a draw but for the player every team on the planet wants.

Morzadec

Confused at all these 'Villa deserved to win' posts. Neither team were great and it would've been hard to complain at 0-0 as a scoreline. Both teams had about the same amount of chances, and I think Liverpool possibly just shaded in terms of possession/control of the game (althought nobody was in control of that game except for in short spells).

As Dannydiamond stated, when you have someone like Torres in your team, you always have a chance of snatching games like this. We see United do it all the time in games in which they're struggling.

But it was a very lucky break, the ball fell nicely for us and I can see why Villa feel hard done by. However as a Liverpool fan I think that it's a break we possibly deserve considering the amount of times these games based on small hinges have gone against us this year.

dfx-

Agbonlahor had his one-on-one chance..and missed.

Torres had his one-on-one chance and scored.

Nothing lucky about it to be fair.

Spiritoftheseventies

Yes only a class striker like Torres could have put a chance like that away. You cant legislate for a goal like that. But overall I thought villa had a good shape to them. But thats how games go sometimes.

You were just about as sh1t as we were to be fair.

HashSlinging

Thought the game was a stalemate TBH, but with the best striker " in the whole world " (thanks JC) we were always going to pip them...

UnitedIrishman

Poor enough game, very cagey apart from a couple of 10 minute spells.

Liverpool took their chance, Villa didn't and that was about the difference.

Draw probably would've been about right but such is life. Liverpool should kick on from this I'd imagine.

Do you know anything about the players involved?? Torres was at a good angle on his STRONG foot, Gabby was at a worse angle on his WEAK foot??

BTW nothing lucky or poxy about the Finish it was a class finish from a class player its how the ball ended up at his feet that is poxy imo

therokerroar

Villa sat back with almost everyone behind the ball all game, Liverpool deserved the win and got it.

BERBA

IMO Villa have been shown up in last 2 games. Its between Spurs Pool and City now i reckon

I'd agree. He has been immense this season. We'd be far worse off without him.

coco06

overall liverpool spent more time attacking i think but villa had the better chances created either on the break or from set piece. They should have taken one of their chances that fell to 3 different players but they didnt..
Nando did and won it. (pepe helped too! )

Both teams were rubbish.

I agree, Liverpool had the advantage of the days rest, but dont see the point in adding the 'Arsenal away' bit, you were the home team today.

Villa Park good to us again, my favourite away ground

Thank you Nando.

Talk about taking defeat on the chin

leninbenjamin

Tough on Villa to lose a match like that. MON was distraught.

Villa really have to work on their ball retention though, they just piss away possession far too much. Drop Carew and put a playmaker in that midfield and they'll be laughin, because they have everything else. Just don't ****ing lump it long after you've worked so hard to win it vback!

Don't do this.

If Vilal hadn't sat back so much they'd have gotten the draw. I'm always glad to see teams that settle for a draw get punished, especially when they're the home team. Ye had a massive chance to open up a huge gap to your main challengers for 4th tonight in a home game and didn't take it. With that attitude ye don't deserve CL football tbh.
