sir_gary_cahill Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 A heads up here, at 3pm on Friday 3 April (today) full 90 Friday will be available on our official website. They are showing our famous 3-1 away victory against Liverpool at Anfield on 15 December 2012. Christian Benteke scored twice for us, Andreas Weimann got the other 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Good stuff. Will be tuning in. Should be more full games of good wins and performances on the YT channel but guess premier league regulations prevent that. Would happily watch full games of wins v Everton and Newcastle again if they were available and even the 2-2 draw at Man. United. I follow Real Sociedad and they put up full 90 minutes of their two wins v Real Madrid last season on their channel yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 I've just seen a screenshot of our starting 11 from that day, it's truly hideous. How we played as well as we did I'll never know, I'd expect our current bunch of misfits to thrash that team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Quote Liverpool: Reina, Johnson, Agger, Skrtel, Gerrard, Downing, Lucas (Henderson 60), Allen, Sterling, Shelvey (Cole 46), Suarez, Subs not used: Jones, Coates, Carragher, Wisdom, Suso Booked: Suarez Goal: Gerrard 87 Aston Villa: Guzan, Clark, Lichaj, Baker, Lowton, Westwood, Bannan (El Ahmadi 85), Herd, Holman (Delph 69), Benteke, Weimann (N'Zogbia 90) Subs not used: Given, Bennett, Albrighton, Bowery Booked: Lowton, Benteke Seriously how good was Benteke, that is probably one of the worst Villa teams to play a Premier League game. That season he was genuinely unplayable. I know he isnt the same player since but he was absolute awesome that season. Only Saunders, Yorke or Tammy have been near that level as a striker 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How we played as well as we did I'll never know, I'd expect our current bunch of misfits to thrash that team. Couldn't believe how bad the back 5 was (although Guzan was brilliant that season). Mad we nearly kept a clean sheet v Suarez and Gerrard. Liverpool did batter us for first 20 minutes. Just shows the importance of keeping it 0-0 sometimes and then pinching a goal v run of play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wezbid Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Is there a way to watch Villa TV on the err... TV without hooking my laptop up to it? Got a firestick plugged in. Konsa vs Jota is on the agenda today. Wish they'd just put it on YouTube or Twitch as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilko154 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Full 90 Friday this week looks as though it's been filmed using a potato whilst constantly showing the loading symbol in the middle of the screen. VillaTV is utter rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 I enjoyed that, I think the game has changed a lot since then. On reflection, I’d say that Jack Grealish would get in that team, he probably is the best player to ever play for the club. We were very reliant on pace from mainly Ashley Young and Gabriel Agbonlahor back then, Martin Laursen was fantastic in the air, he was a brute (in a nice way). Gareth Barry dictated the play from midfield and his partner Petrov complimented him very well. John Carew was a threat in the air and on the deck. We had a bit of a swagger about us back then, MON built that side, it should’ve gone on to do better than it did but it didn’t 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
