Administrator Stan 18,386 Posted January 6 Author Administrator Share Posted January 6 30 minutes ago, Reluctant Striker said: Yes, I think it's part of how they generally are not adapting too well the more sides set up defensively. Emery Villa do have a ball control & play out from the back style. Which has caused as much panic as the high line. But the 2 DMs & trying to be frustrating was ok, when Villa were rightly considered 2nd favourites to most others in most Premier League games. And most sides were looking for 3 points at Villa Park. Now? They seem devoid of ideas of how to break down defence minded opponents. And as Dion Dublin said on commentary, a slow goalkeeper just makes it even more difficult. Villa need to be playing on fast forward, not using the pause button. Yeah we're used to seeing a dynamic and energetic Villa side. I get there's changes and rotation but it makes for a mid-table end of season game as opposed to 'FA Cup magic'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not available here, but the TV cameras always show the view from the South Stands at Hillsborough which is the fullest stand , so it's hard to judge just by watching on TV. The sites showing the results used to give attendence figures all the time, but that dosent seem to be the case anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,206 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Shearer said Arsenal should have been 3 or 4 up after about 20 minutes…the half ended with Arsenal having an xg of 1.50. Other than Odegaard hitting the bar and Nelson early on theres not much to say they should have 3 or 4 lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMike 3,009 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Shearer is chatting complete bollocks with the 'Arsenal should be 4 or 5 up'. They've had a couple of real clear cut chances and some of half chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,206 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Fair play to the ref, quite a few hard but fair challenges and a couple dives we’ve seen from Odegaard and Diaz on soft challenges and he’s kept the game flowing. Great stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inverted 1,776 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Goal. It's almost kind of like you could feel it coming. Liverpool have gradually worked themselves in all game, Arsenal have gotten more and more tetchy, Liverpool finally started making big chances, and eventually took one. Amateurish from Arsenal, to be honest. Still time to equalise, but never have been in this position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,663 Posted January 7 Subscriber Share Posted January 7 Arsenal couldn't have asked for a better chance to beat Liverpool. They also can't expect to compete long term if they think Jesus and Nketiah are good enough options in the centre forward area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,206 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 That result reminds me of Arsenal United earlier this season, not an own goal but a stroke of luck for Rice’s shot deflecting in and they managed to win a game that had a draw written all over it by two goals catching United on the break. That win gave Arsenal a massive boost, maybe this will give Liverpool one going into Afcon territory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas 3,827 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Marco Van Bamford. Misses open goals from 6 yards out, misses penalties then does stuff like this. Will never work him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
