RandoEFC 6,924 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 At least we'll look arsed, that's all I'll say. We're still shite but the crowd will get behind the team here and we should be able to get a result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandoEFC 6,924 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I mean, charity is good too, but today is all about throwing as much red meat to the fanbase as possible and turning Goodison Park into a bear pit for the next couple of games. It won't solve any of our problems in the longer term but I'm here all day for the short term endorphin hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil-Dick Willie 2,753 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Villa have 1pt from 3. Everton, leeds, newcastle, watford next 4. Then Brighton and Southampton after that. If they don't pick up at least 12 points there then what the fuck was the point of sacking Dean Smith. But we shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Brentford game aside, Villa have got the results against the teams around them haven't they? Three of their four defeats under Gerrard have been to Man City, Liverpool and Chelsea.

Especially having flopped against the higher clubs after an inital Gerrard bounce. Ok.. not disgracefully, but still losing most of them. It really does feel like a time both Villa & Gerrard could really do with kicking on again & proving they are serious against the nearer rivals. They'll certainly all be judged more harshly over the next matches. Edited January 22 by Reluctant Striker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three of their four defeats under Gerrard have been to Man City, Liverpool and Chelsea. True that, and you can't begrudge them any of those losses (even to a turgid Chelsea) but that's gonna put them under more pressure to win 3/4 in their next 4 considering they're playing some of the worst the league has to offer now, then Southampton and Brighton are 2 teams they'd wanna be beating or at least out playing. They're 2 from 7. Failing to beat Brentford makes it look a bit uglier than it might be, but as I said, makes it crucial to put it all behind them now. 12 minutes ago, Reluctant Striker said: Close to my feelings.

If you're not picking up 4 wins here, it just seems a bit pointless, and if you do, you can point to the results as to why Smith wasn't given more time.

I'm Australian, never stepped foot on English shores, I don't read your papers or know your politics, so you can fuck right off with your classism anti scouse bullshit. I've disliked liverpool football club famously ever since I started posting on TFF 10 years ago, but people of liverpool have nothing to do with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This forum practically gagged on Lampard when he was managing. I know I'm right, whether Gerrard is a good manager or not it's not what he's judged for.

I know I'm right, whether Gerrard is a good manager or not it's not what he's judged for. Lampard in his first season delivered top 4 football with no transfers, when pretty much no one expected it and Chelsea fans would have taken that 100% at seasons start. He got plaudits, he deserved them. Then the fat fucker misspent in the window, and fucked it all up with the pressure on him, and was rightfully called on it. If Gerrard gets Villa pushing at Europe, I'm sure many here will gobble his cock. Just the same as we should look upon him dryly if Villa finish 11th or 12th, where Dean Smith would likely have had them. You're in a forum dominated by Liverpool fans ffs.

The Artful Dodger 1,829 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) This forum is moderated by someone who despises Liverpool (as city) but pretends not to. Much like most of the British establishment. Anyway, hope Everton win. Great club, great fans.

Stan 15,573 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 Here we go again. Show me proof why you think I despise Liverpool as a city then we can take it from there. Thanks. You failed to provide proof of your accusation last week and then again before that when @DeadLinesmanasked you. You have previous for spouting bullshit with absolutely no substance so I think we know where this will end up. Seriously, save yourself the breath and stress of it all and move the fuck on cos you're boring the fuck out of everyone on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan 15,573 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 Absolute berk has gone from thinking I hate everything about Liverpool, then thinking it's just the city I hate, then thinking I now must not like Everton because they're a Liverpool-based club.

Lucas 3,321 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 For me, I'm not sure this formation is quite working for Everton. Villa look more dangerous with the ball. Everton seem to be getting a bit overrun in midfield. Worth a switch to 4-3-3 and go like for like? Or is Big Dunc hoping for a 1-0 win?

RandoEFC 6,924 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Three man midfield is definitely the way to go for us but Duncan and Ancelotti were both obsessed with playing Richarlison and Calvert-Lewin as a front two. Some cunt threw a Lucozade bottle that hit Cash and Digne in the celebrations there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
