The difference for me is we finally have coaches that know what they're doing. It's well documented on here I was no fan of Robertson and Walford, they appeared to be from another time but fortunately we have two ex-players in Gary Mac and Sid that really understand the basics of modern football. Houllier seems to be enjoying the job, which is no surprise as let's face it, any manager with half a brain could see what was wrong with us and what needed fixing.MON never saw it and even if he had, he'd not the staff around him to change it.
I'm gotta admit I've not really taken to Houllier yet (despite wanting to) interviews like this sadly hasn't helped convince me...http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/l/liverpool/9097609.stm
I don't get it. We got a draw at Spurs and beat chelsea at home last season. I guess I'm just not cultured enough to understand this better football craic.
You know under mon it would have been cuellar, he does things you do not expect and I like it

It's always a shame when one half of a relationship can't accept that the other half has walked out and doesn't love them anymore.

I'm aware that we've lost a good manager, I'm hoping Gerard will be an even better manager. What I don't understand is why people are rejoicing in our so-called "better football" on the back of two results that are worse than the corresponding fixtures last season. That's the type of stuff we take the piss out of the Baggies for.
I don't have to get over anything Dave. My "relationship" with the manager and indeed anyone else who works at Villa is determined purely and simply by the nature of the job they're doing and the results they achieve. Thankfully, I don't have the same economic incentive that you have to make a soap opera out of everything connected to the club.
