Nakamba Benched As Struggling Villa Take On Liverpool

Zimbabwe international Marvelous Nakamba was dropped to the bench as Aston Villa faced newly-crowned English Premier League champions, Liverpool, at Anfield on Saturday afternoon.

Birmingham-based publication Birmingham Mail, which covers the Claret and Blues appeared to point fingers at Nakamba for Wolverhampton Wanderers’ goal at Villa Park last Saturday.

In their post-match analysis of the game, the Birmingham Mail insinuated that the former Club Brugge man, who was making his first start since the return of the Premier League, was to blame for the Wolves goal.

Liverpool stumbled on their first outing since being confirmed as champions on Thursday night when they fell to a 4-0 defeat at the hands of Manchester City.

Saturday’s 1-0 loss against Wolves made it two draws and two defeats from Villa’s four games since the top flight’s resumption last month.
