Under Houllier we played more football at home in not even one season than we did in two full seasons with O'Neill.
For all Houllier's faults, I thought we were on,y seeing the start of his methods being put into place.
Under O'Neill we saw the same thing over over again, as it was the only thing he knew how to do. If he'd stayed another ten seasons, we'd have played the same artless, tedious guff at home the whole decade.
A slightly more palatable version of his Leicester City except at a bank breaking cost which has left us skint. Far too often at home he had that expensive team looking like less than the sum of its parts.
