Curtis Jones completed 122 of his 127 passes tonight - the most on Opta's records (from 2003-04) by a Liverpool player in a single Champions League game. #LFC

Jones was excellent tonight, we looked much more composed and controlled in possession. The 3 of Szobo Jones and Wirtz worked well in terms of keeping hold of the ball.

Really enjoyed seeing a front 3 of Ekitike, Chiesa and Gakpo with Wirtz behind. So fluid, so good.

Us coming back like that after going a goal down is absolutely massive

Disappointing way to concede after we'd been playing reasonably well before that. We're so weak trying to stop attacks.

Oh for gods sake 🤦🏼‍♂️

Frimpong's hamstrings are worse than mine and I'm unfit af

Decades after the Heysel and Hillsborough disasters, can politicians please not second-guess expert safety assessments for football stadiums. Thank you. An Aston Villa fan.

This is up there with the worst sports article ever written and published by the BBC. And considering how low the bar is, that's saying something. Gaslighting of the very worst kind, with lies, obfuscation and a deeply distorted narrative. Shameful stuff. And no byline. www.bbc.com/sport/footba...

Just read the BBC report on Tel Aviv declining tickets for the match and it is the most misrepresentive, propagandarous piece I have ever read on the BBC sport page. Demonises villa & the safety authorities & at no point mentions the long history of disorder & violences from the Tel Aviv fans. Vile.

Is anyone else suspicious of Greg looking like a young Homelander with similar powers as him on #genv ? Could be a clone or some relation to him? Or they just did that on purpose to make people like me paranoid 😂

Starmer has gone to such ridiculous lengths to appease his paymasters at FoI that it's gotten to the point of making himself look mentally unhinged

I would laugh if this wasn't so true 😭

waiting for Keir Starmer to condemn the antisemitic (checks notes) Israeli police

I’ll be honest, I’m finding it really difficult to be too angry with any of them. It’s incredibly frustrating to watch, but it’s clear they’re trying and I think they deserve applause for that given what happened in the summer. I no others will be fuming, which is totally fair.

Like Virg said it was likely to be a tough season with such major upheaval on the pitch while the players are also dealing with stuff of the pitch. Looking very much to be a transitional season.

I think we were extremely unlucky not to get anything out of this. We will get there.

We will be grand once all our players click but getting there is proving to be a very rough journey

Gakpo could've had 5 today should've at least had 2

At this point I'm putting our luck in this game down to some witches curse icl

The annoying thing is they've done very little this game Gakpo has hit the post 3 times yet here we are again ffs

Post 2 Gakpo 0

The fuck are they doing wake up

Apparently the ref 'didn't see the injury' Bull. Shit.

Didn't stop the game for a clash of heads wtf these refs make the rules up against us

Bit surprised to see Mac in the team given form & didn't he play a full match at like 1am wednesday morning UK time. Pretty sure he'd have been the last of our players to play an international and return to the squad. Hopefully those 2 goals have given him a boost.

I'm going to predict that today is the day Isak makes his mark

I wonder how long Marinakis will tolerate Dyche's brexit-ball before he sacks him as well 😂

Reckon we just bite the bullet and sign Guehi in Jan as we really need a reliable experienced CB then we may need at least another one if not two in summer depending what happens with Ibou and Gomez

This.

I wish I had so little going on in my life that all i had to worry about was fucking flags

The Huyton times feed on fb is mad because rn its all about a battle between people putting flags up and others taking them down. At this point I feel like these people have far too much time on their hands if their main focus in life is fecking flags!

That we have a UK PM who would rather put English football fans in harms way than risk upsetting the PM of a genocidal nation is absolutely crazy. Remember this when he spouts his BS about "protecting British people"

The UK government are going to cause harm to villa fans through their pandering to Israel this is absolutely insane wtf are they playing at

And to be fair UEFA should have banned Tel Aviv fans a long time ago due to the history of violence from their fans, never mind the behaviour of their govt

Like other posters have said, if Tel Aviv fans harm the villa fans it will be squarely on Starmers head for overturning a decision that was made on safety grounds

Starmer couldn't make it any more obvious he's shilling for Israel the corrupt pos

one of the things i hate about starmer is that he just doesn’t know when to shut the fuck up the prime minister shouldn’t be commenting on this just like he shouldn’t be commenting on graham linehan. he’s forever giving his a right wing leg-humping opinion when he jus shouldn’t say anything at all

The Chase contestant taking the minus offer klaxon. Minus 4 grand!

Oh cool a new quiz on BBC called Inner Circle and...oh it's got a pissing Traitors element to it just like every single other quiz or game thats come out lately ffs

And Iceland are beating France. Can't blame Konate this time 😬

Sweden are losing to Kosovo how are they doing so bad in what was a reasonably easy group 😂💀

Robbo was poor again for that late Belarus goal

Get in Scotland! Assist for Robbo too 👏🏼

Got away with one there Scotland, and in particular Robbo who was closest to the goalscorer. Saved by VAR though.

Quite a bloody cheek, this, given the UK has the most hostile regime towards healthcare for young trans people and their families in the world (www.gov.uk/government/s...).

Starting to think Marinakis is one of the worst kind of owners who doesn't have a clue about the nuances of PL football but can't resist constantly interfering into matters on the pitch rather than just letting a manager do his job

YT just had a car finance claim ad which had a very obvious AI generated guy on it 🤮

No Anthony Taylor, fans don't expect 'perfection' what they do expect is competence, fairness and the right decisions being made. Things which are missing far too often in games. In the age of VAR there is no excuse for them getting decisions so wrong, so often.
