Aston Villa 0-0 Mascherano: We should have gone to Portugal

Javier Mascherano looked like a decent signing for Liverpool at Villa Park today. And, er, that’s about it.

Liverpool played out a dull 0-0 draw today at Aston Villa: the Liverpool faithful certainly were not entertained on this snowy March Sunday afternoon.

Momo Sissoko, clearly in need of those magic glasses he wore briefly last year, seems to have completely forgotten who his team-mates are judging by his inability to pass to them. Steven Gerrard was poor, in fact only one player crowned himself in some form of glory and that was new boy Javier Mascherano. His failure to fit in at West Ham is only seeming to be more bizarre as he was, in our humble opinion, our man of the match. West Ham possibly deserve to go down for not playing him in their side.

All in all, the next time the reds have a 10 day break in between games – they would be better off going back on one of those ‘bonding’ trips in Portugal, have a bit of a fight, then come back and put in a decent performance.

Next up Arsenal. Think I will avoid Eamonn Dunphy and the cast of RTE’s analysis of this game….
