Midweek BPL 30.12.2009
Time : 3.45am
Ason Villa vs Liverpool
Venue @ Villa Park
tentatively it's Wednesday morning 3.45am , CH-27 will be broadcast live !!!!
Earlier .... a few months ago , August .
Villa actually beaten Liverpool @ Anfield .
They won 3-1 .
Rafa's favourite son Lucas scored an own goal . That cemented a famous Villa win at Anfield .
Mark Lawrenson :
This is an absolutely nailed on draw. Villa boss Martin O'Neill has done a good job but you can't convince me that Villa are anything other than a counter-attacking team. The next step for them is to develop into a side that can break down opponents.
If they take the game to Liverpool then Rafael Benitez's team can get a draw as it will suit them. Liverpool are not playing well enough to get anything other than a point from the game. There have been false dawns for them but even a point would be a step in the right direction after the win over Wolves.
Verdict: 1-1
I think .....
Liverpool no match for Villa @ Villa Park .
Villa will have a clean sheet , all credit will be on their American 'keeper Friedel .
Torroes or no Torres , Gerrard or no Gerrard , no diff .
Villa 2-0 for me .
I was at Emirates Stadium yesterday, watching Arsenal vs Villa live and trust me Villa is all fired up for this game. Liverpool fan I may be, but I got to say Villa to win, at least 3-0.
Liverpool once again with another inept performance will not know what has hit them.
Aston Villa 3 Liverpool 0.
U pilot ?
Good huh ?
Can see soccer when free ?
Just buy tickets .
Maybe u need not buy , complimentart tickets if u pilot Emirates .
In fact , i dunno .... i thought Rafa's squad of players , other than Yossi Benayoun , i don't know which player can be rated as one with flairs .
Not even Gerrard .
Unlike the Liverpool of the 80's , under Joe Fagan .
We had flair players like Dalglish , Ronnie Whelan , Graeme Souness , Jan Molby , Paul Walsh , Craig Johnston , Peter Bearsley , Ray Houghton , so many of them .
Simple pass , simple thru ball , simple movements , simple tap in .
Liverpool were a really play simple team .
Play Simple and win !!
Now ? A simple game that make it so complicate to play .
It's now complicated huh.. U noe, Liverpool do and can play that style, when they were on song during the first few games of the season. But only with key players le. I think Pacheco has that direct passing style, likable to Gerrard's, Aquilani and Benayoun.
Actually, instead of a certain someone missing from midfield, it has been a certain someone who HAVE been playing in midfield that's causing much distress in the middle of the park for us. He's just too... ordinary, most of the time. Guess who? Starts with L..

No need to look too far.
We had Luis Garcia.
The same line-up that lost the most game this season .
Reina
Carra / Agger / Johnson / Insua
Lucas / Gerrard / Aquilani / Yossi
Kuyt / Torres
it was really snowing at Midlands .
Why the fuck this match still go ahead ?
Woohoo!!! TORRES!!! 1-0! WE WIN!
haiz another tyco win for us... why win? so that we can get away from another lousy performance?
Chelsea also needed an own goal to win, means they dun deserve to win? We wanted it more, we did not win in style, we grinded out a win and though Villa did not deserve to lose, luck came to us and we took our chance.

tyco win?hmm..then i wonder how many tyco wins man u have got away with.
football is round.anything can happened.liverpool did good to win this game.to me it was 50-50.
kudos to torres for his magnificent finish. and it wasnt an EASY goal.
yeah man...hi guys!!! another pool fan here and i have been for 20yrs...sad, i have onli seen them league champions once...but i am glad they won...it was a tough game...do we smell a pool comeback? hmmm...they have been giving us false hopes of late...
Pls la guys , pls come in here when Liverpool lose also ....
Win liao then come in , and say u guys supported Liverpool for 20 year bla bla bla .....
Yeah like what some said , it was a 50-50 , anyone can really win .
No luck involve la , for goodness sake .
Everyone on the pitch did farely well to press for a win .
When everyone was thinking it was be a stalemate , how were they wrong !!!
That was a miscue pass really , but went to the right path , a path rarely goes wrong for Torres .
For Villa , it was a moment of lacking of concentration for the full back .
It was a difficult angle to score , but Torres make it with ease .
A game i would say , a well deserve win !!!
For me , I felt it was a defeat. Look at the number of chances Villa had, if they were lucky, we would have lost 2 or 3-1.
kudos to reina who made a couple of good saves.
to poolman...in case u havent noticed i have been in here for quite a while...i have had a few threads in this forum too...so pls get ur facts rite b4 accusing ppl...
we dont deserve to be saved by el nino at all.
