    April Women's Football Thread

    APRIL FOOL! Hahaha, it's not really a women's football thread of course. I got you good.



    Anyway, non-international football is back(, baby!) and is basically on non-stop until May now. So fear not, Wout Weghorst is about to be back in all our lives.

    I was thinking about this other day, noticing Football Weekly had stopped doing a Women's Football but and given them their own dedicated podcast. Cant find the exact figures but a football podcast chart site has FW at 1 and WFW at 35. Equal pay now, you misogynists.

    Ah ffs the Norwegian fuck is out. Banana Silva on bench is decent though. Bring on the goalfest.

    No Haaland but this fixture is everything Liverpool struggle with.

    It's away, it's at City, it's on a Saturday and it's the early kick off.

    The one feather in the cap so far this season is that of the 'top 6 mini league' Liverpool are actually top. A shame to see Nunez on the bench, but any points at all here I would bite your hand off for.

    The City defence was hilarious there. Liverpool should score a few here on the break.

    If Liverpool put 10 passes together you can see the City back line become very disjointed. Guardiolas tinkering there does undo them when they face a team who can attack them.

    Both defences can be got it. With Haaland out this game has reverted back to being a proper spectacle. So open. If Haaland was playing, Liverpool would probably have dropped deep like they did in the return fixture.

    Swear Mahrez was offside

    Rodri with the same kind of counter stopping challenge about 2 mins apart. One is a yellow but the other isn't.

    Guardiola loves to out tactic himself. Every time he does something mental like three at the back and Stones in midfield, they get carved open.

    Also guessing the new “surrounding the referee” rule doesn’t apply to Liverpool.

    Yeah but only one of us are a bunch of cheating bastards with our players hitting the deck at the slightest breeze.

    Been an okay first half but Harvey Elliott has seen it pass him by. Same for Gakpo really. I'd like to see Nunez up top with Jota staying out on the left.

    Any good work immediately undone. If you're not playing your defence on the fucking halfway line that doesn't happen.

    I see he's remembered he has substitutes.

    Sending Oxlade on is basically giving up though.

    Liverpool are better off just tanking the season now and avoiding Europe altogether now especially since their nailed on 1-1 on Tuesday will happen before they face Arsenal next week.

    I feel like every game against Chelsea for about 5 years has finished 0-0.

    Yet another 12:30 kick off where the legs have gone in the 2nd half. A lot of these have had a week off as well. You wonder where it's going wrong in training at this point.

    Back to back wins lifts Gateshead out of the bottom four. They still have two games in hand over some of the teams around them.

    They're currently 3-1 up in their FA Trophy semi final at half-time.

    Full time: 3-3 but Gateshead win on penalties. Both sides of the river get to Wembley this year.

    Two full backs in a back three for Mr Potter today. Let’s see if he stops being so negative today.

    Rudiger to Koulibaly has been some downgrade, as has Bobby Madley to Andy Madley.

    Cucurella is literally not even a top flight player. He should be on the bench at Ponferradina or something. Just makes terrible decisions week after week.

    That defending again.

    Villa should score a few here if there fancy it. Villa look a bit open as well but you wouldn’t trust Chelsea to take advantage.

    Mudryk has yipped up there.

    I like Potter, but I reckon Ruben Loftus-Road at wing back and Reece James at centre back has to qualify as overthinking it.

    The good news is Emery loves sitting in and defending a narrow lead as much as Potter does.

    Kepa and conceding from outside the box. Never change, mate.

    Potter surely can’t keep lasting. You can’t let him manage against Madrid, it will be carnage.

    Madueke on to play right wing back. Jesus

    It's mostly the finishing, which is consistently ludicrously bad. Joao Felix gets three great chances a game and does nothing. Havertz side-foots it at the keeper. Mudryk's had two sitters and completely heads-have-gone on both of them. Chilwell is our most dangerous forward.

    OK, so in this game we've lost two goals but it should be 2-2 or better just from the complete sitters.

    Mudryk will be absolutely electric when he goes on loan to Leverkusen in 18 months' time. In England, not sure he's ever going to see enough room in behind.

    I honestly don't know what sort of hex Potter places on his players to make them so bad at shooting, but if he doesn't lift it by the end of the season I will reluctantly have to join the Potter out crew.

    The amount of high level players who can’t actually kick the ball these days is alarming. I see it every week here where it’s to be expected, but not lads on about half a million a month. Too much youth coaching focused on strength speed power.

    They’re getting worse though. Just get rid.

    You’re just prolonging the inevitable when the crowd are already wanting you out.
