mikeyp102 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 So this morning at work, I overhear a Liverpool fan talking about the game. His only input was that Martinez time wasted and it isn’t in the spirit of the game. If it wasn’t for that then Liverpool would’ve won the game. Showing why Liverpool fans are hated… no input about us dominating first half, no input how their midfield kicked us all game… it’s just the time waiting.. **** off. As for spirit of the game, has he never seen Salah dive and roll about all over the place 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villaglint Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 We’ve all spent a lot of time watching Emi time wasting is it just me that thinks he wasn’t that bad on Sat? They booked him with about half an hour to go so he couldn’t take the piss like he usually does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was time wasting in the 50th minute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allani Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 11 minutes ago, Genie said: It was pretty bad and his reputation now goes before him. He was time wasting in the 50th minute. As of 2 weeks ago there were 5 clubs who spend more time taking goal kicks than Villa - Everton, Southampton, Bournemouth, Newcastle and Brentford. With Brentford taking on average 2.5 seconds longer for a goal kick than us. I have only checked on the number of yellow cards (rather than the reason for them) but this reveals that the goalkeepers with the most bookings are: Emi (7) Pickford (5) Neto (4) Leno, Meslier, Pope, Ederson (3) Interestingly Raya has only been booked once this season and yet spends almost 10% longer over a goal-kick than Emi. Emi is definitely being targetted by opposition fans and he is being booked disproportionately compared to other keepers (assuming that bookings tend to be late and so if he takes kicks quicker after being booked that isn't going to hugely impact the total average time taken). I do feel that refs have noted some of his antics and are pinging him more often because of his reputation. Interestingly, Liverpool take almost 2 seconds less to take a goal-kick than any other PL team, more than 6 seconds faster than us and almost 10 seconds quicker than Brentford. Obviously goal kicks are only one metric for "time wasting" but they are the easiest to attribute directly to the keeper and I suspect it is reasonable to assume that it is quite a good indicator for general "slowing the game down" / "time wasting". 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends who they buy in summer, they have a lot of players leaving on free contracts, their squad will look quite thin, they need a new midfield.

Villatillidie95 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I remember the first season Klopp was there, he got them to Europa League final in May 2016 and he was beaten by Unai Emery. Great to know we have a really capable manager who will know what we need to do in that league or champions league in the years to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The media and general public might not recognise it yet but football managers and people really in the game will know exactly what we're going to bring next year and are absolutely shit scared. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They used to close out games constantly by the keeper rolling the ball to a defender a yard away, the defender passing it back and the keeper picking it up. They would happily do it for ages.
