Yah. I agree with you Qing. Momo nearly cost us the match in the end, losing the ball in the middle of the field on at least two occasions. If he cannot or d...

Paiseh, I just realised we didn't have a thread for this match. Where are you, Uncle Poolman?!?! Laughing

Final score: 2-1 to Liverpool. Great free kick by Stevie G.

used SG

pool's inability to finish off games almost came to haunt them

but gerrard's goal is worthy of winning any game

Patrik SG

Riise is damn selfish.
Mad Mad Mad
Torres is a lil disappointing.
Kuyt needs a lil more luck.
Wonder goal from Captain Stevie!!

WiNtEr'SkiLL SG

sad... Shocked Shocked

Father Lim SG

frOst^~^nOva SG

Unstoppable goal from Steven Gerrard! Woohoo! Smile Deserve to win any game!

Finally we got a winning start for a season under Rafael Benitez.

Could we now start to dream a little dream? Mr. Green

www SG

its a deserved win but not a happy one.

just couldnt comprehend the curse on liverpool players' (esp the strikers) ability to finish in the box.

its like ah ben trained them with extra wide goal posts.

Poolman SG

Sorry , this few days either i am busy working , cos holiday period , or i am dead tired after working ....

Lucky we have Ah Cool , damn Cool la Cool ! Laughing

Poolman SG

I was at the coffe shop watching anyway ....

What's wrong with our display ?

I thought we did very well , considering we are playing away ...

Liverpool really contain The Villains throughout .... we stop the way they wanted to ....

And we control the rhythm of the game . Villa can't really get anything from us .

The handball incident that caused the penalty is a bit , well.....unlucky .

The ball just struck Carra's hand at the wrong time right at the wrong place !!

I thought Reina could have save from Barry , no ! The penalty was well-taken .

Ya la .... Gerrard's goals was good , good to win any games .

Torres did well ma .... Kuyt also ...Babel was good once he came on ....

The worst player on our side could well be Xabi Alonso , cos basically he did nothing much than to slide in a few of his trademark tackles .

Medicated Oil SG

Liverpool did not marshall the midfield properly.

That is why Villa can controlled the game most of the time.

Overall game play - Villa played more in a team with flow.

Liverpool did not play like a team and did not impose themselves against the opponent.

They need to gel faster as a team.

Only Steve pushed forward for a victory when the team was drawn.

At least we won the 1st game.

The team need to be more hungry about winning game.

They are just too soft.

RaTtY8l SG

liverpool defence is shaky i feel, especially from aerial threats.

CoolMyth SG

Alonso really has lost form from the last season. He can't seem to get a grip and control the midfield like what he did in his first season.

I'm more disappointed in Sissoko's performance. Freaking CMI!!! Evil or Very Mad

For the few minutes he was on, he lost possession three times! Thus, allowing Aston Villa to try to get an equaliser. He will always lose the ball immediately after he touches it. Can't he keep it for 30 secs or something? He allergic to the ball is it?

Agenda SG

gerrard goal machiam like beckham

Patrik SG

Worst player on the pitch should be Riise.
Mad Mad Mad
I just realised last night how selfish he can be.

CoolMyth SG

No lah. It's the instructions that weren't given.

So often times, you see the strikers too unselfish, always try to pass when there's a shooting chance and the midfielders too selfish, always shoot on sight.

But can't be blamed. Our captain long shot expert, Alonso half field expert, and Riise also packs a punch in his shots. Laughing Only Pennant guai guai always try to bring the ball to the end and cross it.

The man who was death SG

dang....villa still need a commanding midfield presence...reo coker is not the answer....i'm worried with mccann gone, we have no ball winners now...coker doesn't look like he's gonna get stuck i and win balls.

this season's 4-3-3 nowhere as good as last season's....need to play the ball to carew's feet and not his head and let him pick young and agbonbon out...

and on villa signing carson on loan....that's a farking stupid decision!!! 2mil for a keeper on loan?? i mean that's what man city, fulham, west ham spent on isaksson, niemi and green PERMANENTLY!!!!!! you can get a good keeper not even a decent one PERMANENTLY for 2 mil!!!

it's not like carson is way better than sorenson, sorenson is good enough.. and why o'neill doesn't give taylor more chance?? he's done well....i'd rather we overpay a good outfield player by 2 mil just to get him......absolutely mind boggling from o'neill....

SBS9828X SG

we have benayoun and mascherano and alonso... wonder whats keeping ah ben from off loading sissoko Rolling Eyes

Poolman SG

As for Carson on loan to Villa ...... Carson is a good 'keeper . What he did at Charlton last season , we all saw , at the moment , not much available 'keeper that is young , english and capable , and establish england national , or even future england no.1 .

So Villa has got only Carson on their list .

2 million pounds for the whole season , for a top-quality 'keeper , worth la , Death !!

The man who was death SG

It's waste of 2 mil i feel....what do you achieve loaning carson for 2 mil only to return him at the end of the season?? wouldn't it be better to save this 2 mil and get a permanent keeper now??
