Villa v Liverpool Post Match

[Glenn Hysen]

Well to the style of play he used to play with us in his first spell as manager, before Kenny, our style was not dissimilar from Rafa's, control possession and if need be simply grind teams down.

We haven't shown a lack of back bone and shoddy enough defending to be like Evan's sides.

"As soon as you lose it, that's when your defending starts and as soon as you win it, that's when your attacking starts"

Brilliant comment

We also dont have the clinical finishing quality of Roy Evans' sides.

Do you mean Robbie Fowler.

[Craig_H]

Do you mean Robbie Fowler.

Well Fowler, but also had Collymore for a time, and Rushie was still there for some of it too, so compared to now, there was far more finishing ability.

Aye, but at the time they just weren't in God's league (apart from in the literal sense).

[Glenn Hysen]

Sorry, i thought you meant today was the first time you'd seen us play like this since Roy Evans' days

I might be of the same nationality as Arn. But thats where our similarities ends.

Not referring to Evans cause we all know who Arn worships.

[JohnDoe]

I see a top side developing here. Not in quality, but in mentality.

Those chances will go in eventually, and when they do, we'll be a handful.

[Craig_H]

Aye, but at the time they just weren't in God's league (apart from in the literal sense).

Well no they weren't but they were better finishers than our current crop. By far. And they'd be feasting on the chances we are creating.

[Daniel 7]

Are you the real Glenn Hysen?

[Lecter]

Well no they weren't but they were better finishers than our current crop. By far. And they'd be feasting on the chances we are creating.

Rush in the Evans era and Fowler in the Rafa era would still be outscoring our current forwards comfortably

[Glenn Hysen]

Are you the real Glenn Hysen?

Nope. I'm 100% fake.

Good result, well played. It's really nice us play this attacking, fluid game. Haven't seen us play like this since Roy Evans.

Rafa's team in it's prime played at least as well as this unit.

They were superb.
