Post by Bunting14 »

Liverpool being outplayed by Villa who are 2 nil up.

No atmosphere at all (as usual).

Liverpool's defence is absolute dogshit! Sissoko? What a joke! And a lot of people now saying the victims are better without Stevie Me. They watch the games, there must be something in it. Come on the Villa!

Liverpool 2-0 down at home to Villa. Think their season is going to implode from here. Fixture congestion won't be so kind to them with the bloated group stages of European competitions finished and FA Cup in the reckoning and also their success has been based on the fact they have been beating all the shit teams at home. Second half of the season they're facing a lot of very hard home games and tricky return fixtures away to those shit teams, can't see them getting (m)any decent runs together. Won't get CL imo.

City inevitably won but sounded like they were made to work for it a bit. Huge game tomorrow, United just cannot afford to lose it. Very poor result for Shammers too, they are real relegation candidates.

1-2 Villa
Sturridge has just pulled one back for the dippers ffs. Right on half time. The *word censored* are back in it.

Beautiful touch from Henderson to set up Sturridge.

For the penalty? Didn't see it, BBC live text said Guzan tried to bring his arms away but it was "always going to be a penalty", sounded like it could have been a dive!

yes mate.
Guzan should have stayed on his feet as Suarez was always going away from the nets and towards the by-line. He went to ground but didnt touch the ball or Suarez. Of course Suarez went down.
I really hate diving.

No doubt when asked about it afterwards Rodgers will be indignant, claim it was a clear penalty and that it's a Suarez witch-hunt again. He may even crowbar another decision in there today that he'll claim should have gone their way and make reference to the fact they've been shafted this season by refs supposedly. Never mind the fact that that's the second week in a row they've been given an extremely soft pen they shouldn't have had at a key moment.

I can see why the ref gave it all right - but it was a dive.
Guzan wasnt even booked

8 points above the loathsome Mickeys now. A win for Everton up next and they go 4th

Would love to see those fucking tossers miss out on the top 4 and Everton to nick it.

We'll see how Suarez's great show of loyalty stands then when he's got another season without the Be All and End All

Yep, naive Victims seem to think because they've given him a huge pay rise and inked in a proper release clause that he won't be demanding to leave again when they finish 6th and the papers are awash with talk of Madrid being in for him.

As I said above I really think their season will unravel. They have consistently beaten shit teams at home because they've not had any European fixtures. Now they're going to struggle at home against the teams towards the top of the table and once they start dropping points at home their season will become disjointed and they'll start dropping points at all manner of grounds against teams scrapping for their lives.

Can envisage them finishing below Everton, United and the Scum, I really can. They are shit.

Excellent saves from Butland in the Palace/Stoke game. The 3 point blank saves in a 5sec period are very good for a young keeper.

Watching the league show and really hope Forest make it up, would love to see Lansbury playing in the premier league.

Fat Andy Reid still has a mean shot on him for an ex-scum player.

It amazes me that we let him go so easily and then held on to sh*te like Denilsh*t. Livermore from the sc*m is easly inferior to him yet he's on loan at a premier league club :oops:

Derby have got a few decent young English players, a bit like the saints wouldn't mind seeing them get through via the play-offs.

Really hope QPR don't make it into the prem. That twitchy :censored: has basically got a premier league squad in the championship and are still not running away with it.

Even in league 1, Kevin Davies is still a dirty f**ker, he scores a good goal and then gets sent of for a studs up challenge :banghead:

I really can't decide who I want to win - chavs to pile on the moaners misery or united to peg the chavs back and start a two horse race ?

It may be moot anyway as without Rvp and the fat granny shagger I don't think they have a goal threat.
