They've both been away games too though so hopefully it's something we can change at Villa Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 I really didn't think Unai would employ the high line here today. We know how Liverpool and Nunez exploited it on Boxing Day last year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icarium Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Torres is an absolute liability playing out from the back. Being outplayed all over the park. If the game keeps up like this it will be 2 pastings from teams we thought we would competing with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinebro Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Are we unlucky with injuries or do we have loads of injury prone players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Conceding early then the injury to Carlos and a change of formation has contributed to a very poor half. We created a couple of half chances. We need that third goal quickly second half if we are going to get back into the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villatillidie95 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 we can't complain about the arrogance of the 'big teams' and then be surprised at their fans arrogance when we put in performances like this....especially the fans abroad who dont watch other teams as much, we have to show them what we are about too.....frustrating 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakemineVanilla Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 McGinn needed to put away his chance, which might have tested Liverpool's mentality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewiek2 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 2 minutes ago, TheAuthority said: the linesman on Salah's side has been appalling. Just not flagging for any offsides allowing them to unnerve the back 4 Can't not give Salah everything in his last game before his £200m move to the hand cutters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunnski Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Torres looks so far off the standard, has cost us a few goals so far this season due to lack of pace and lack of strength Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattVillaPortsmouth Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Poor half, these are the games we miss Mings the most. Liverpool not even out of second gear. Worrying thing, is it’s the same as Newcastle - undone by the same thing over and over again in a half. Once. Twice maybe is forgivable but it’s constantly the same. Desire also seems to be missing. all that being said 1 quick goal, and we can get something - that’s crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustibrooks Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 I’d like to see us press them higher up the pitch a bit more. Allowing Trent to ping balls is just asking to get battered. Pau needs to come off. I know he’s settling in, but every worry about him has been on display today. Watkins’ hold up play has been poor today as well. Konsa, Luiz and Diaby have been the best of the lot today imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a good look. We aren't getting battered. We conceded an unlucky first, the 2nd is a bad goal to concede. But we've had 3 or 4 solid opportunities to equalise. Saying we've been battered isn't accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we have ambitions of beating our league finish of last season we can't really be destroyed when we play good teams. Remember we gave everyone an 11 game head start last season, this is only game 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
