We asked for your thoughts after Liverpool emerged with a 2-2 draw from Wednesday’s Premier League game at Aston Villa.
Here are some of your comments:
Christopher: A combative and resilient performance at a difficult venue. Villa are in the Champions League last 16 so some perspective is needed. A point at City would also represent a good return. Arsenal are not out of it, but they are under pressure too. Let’s see come May.
Stuart: Liverpool should have taken advantage of Villa’s early sloppiness in defence. It seemed as though players game time was being strictly managed. Should have won it, could have lost it. Eight points ahead is the main thing.
Andy: As a Liverpool supporter, it feels as if the momentum is shifting and I ask myself if we peaked too early. We’ve often just scraped the win recently, we are still battling but we are relying on one man (Salah) more and more with goals from others dwindling. Nunez is a huge concern and at some point, Liverpool need to make an outbound decision on him and accept he isn’t the right fit.
Julia: I am a massive Liverpool fan, but I feel they are holding on to every game now. They don’t look as slick as they did at the start of the season. Unfortunately we have a few tired players. Nunez does not do it for me at all. His work rate as a player is great but his finishing at vital times is poor and you keep thinking if another player was on the end of that ball it would be a goal. Not sure how many more chances he can be given. However, I still think Liverpool will win the league.
Rob: Better second half than against Wolves and should have won if Nunez had done what he is paid to do. However, still only one defeat in the league and Arsenal cannot afford any dropped points so the pressure remains on them.
Ken: Villa away is never an easy game but draws are akin to silent killers in the context of a tight title race. With games against City and Newcastle imminent in this brutal run of tough fixtures, Liverpool need to win both to restore calm. Should Nunez have hit an open target today? Yes. Should Nunez have had the opportunity to hit the target ? No. Szoboszlai was in a far better position to shoot but opted to pass on the responsibility. Players need to step up in these big moments and not shy away. Oh, and can Liverpool please work on set pieces? Poor in both boxes and it’s an aspect that needs to improve rapidly.
