RE: INTRODUCING "THE LEAGUE TALK" - LIVE ACTION FOOTBALL DISCUSSIONS

in World Of Football ⚽4 years ago (edited)

I would like to kick things off by starting with the obvious: Aston Villa 7, Liverpool 2. That was a total beatdown. Aside the initial error caused by Adrian, I think the boys from Aston really did the homework on their Anfield boys.

They looked unbeatable but as I always say, liverpool would be in a lot of trouble should some of their key players get injured. Last night's match really proved my point. Should Henderson and Thiago had been on the park, the entire midfield would have changed altogether.

Their forward would have also been a lot stronger with Sadio Mane on the right wing. He is quite aggressive when it comes to forward play and liverpool really needed that last night. Salah is only good for pace and clinical finishing as well.

Let's not forget the efforts made by the Aston Villa players. Newly signed Ollie Watkins was on top form and left no stone unturned. Firminho had the exact same chance that resulted in Watkins' first goal and wasted it. It seems as if he has just become an "assisting striker".

It was an absolute humiliation as Liverpool conceded 3 goals (hat-trick) from a single player within the first 45 minutes. That alone kills the spirit of the defence.

Who could also forget all the nutmegging that took place in the 18 yard box of liverpool. Prior to this, people said they were going to go 10 straight wins without a single draw. I think need to drop that "over confidence" and sign fresh blood after the first round.

I completely agree with you. Aston villa has played out of the world.Most of the people are taking about Liverpools mistakes but they are not thinking about the villas bravery. With 30% ball possession, they scored 7 goals.Unbelievable!!! They made the proper use of the weakness of defence. Livepool cpuld have scored more if sadio played. But nothing can do.Without Allison, Thiago, Henderson, Liverpool tried to play but It wasnt their day. Bad luck!!!

I seriously hope this teaches them a great lesson. Klopp needs to sign more players than he did. There is no such thing as an extra player. When the need arises, hell fill in.

They made a lot of money last season so I was surprised to see just a few signings. He is just over confident. He needs to start worring anout Van dijk right now. He's a great defender, possibly the best at his position. But what would happen if he gets injured?

They need to really ponder over that.

@njaywan
You are right. In fact, liverpool needs to buy one more center back. Teams need to play 2-3 matches per week.So its obvious for a player to get injured. I heard Coulibaly will join Liverpool. But it didnt true.
They also needs a backup goalkeeper of Allisson. Adrian is famous for childish mistakes.

Koulibaly for Liverpool? Sounds like Gattusso grew a heart. I think it will be very tough for a deal of that nature to succeed. This is because they need him in order to keep their hopes of taking the serie A and Champions league alive.

If there had been a better option on the bench, then I would consider it a likely outcome. Remember how Chelsea suffered to strike a deal for Driss Mertens last season? Similar thing might happen here as well.

It is not impossible since Klopp is famous for being a very good negotiator who make unimaginable deals.

But then again Manchester City has been after the CB for a while now since he is the exact caliber of defense best suited for the style of play. And the aggression dropped after Vicent Kompany left the team.

I think it's going to be tough to see this deal come to light.

@njaywan
I dont think Liverpool will go for any big deal. And today is the last day of transfer window. Still they have 10 days in hand to buy playes from england. I heard Allion is out for one month. If its true, tgen all red may suffer against Everton, Man city and Atalanta.

Yeah, you are right about that one. Liverpool is one of the clubs known for paying the least for a great player so I'm sure their deals would be on the low.

If Allison is out for a whole month it might be a problem for Liverpool. But if the defence get back on track in the next week's game, then I think there us no cause for alarm.

Now that Man City has all of its strikers injured, it is going to be tough for them as well. But I expect Atalanta and Everton to give us a good showdown.

I can't wait.

@njaywan I think Liverpool should replace Adrian. They can buy Paulo Gazzaniga.And they need support in defense also. To me, Liverpool vs Atalanta will be the most exciting match of Champions League.What do you think???

It will be very difficult for Tottenham to release Gazzaniga. I have seen him perform very well on many occasions such as their match against Liverpool last season,

It will be difficult for that deal to happen since he is next behind Hugo Lloris and they don't have another good keeper on the bench.

Oh Atalanta vs Liverpool is definitely bound to be interesting. I also think Chelsea - Sevilla, PSG - Man United and Barca - Juve will be explosive.

I think we are in for a world of surprises. Don't you agree?
