If the post match from AM includes:

Unlucky
Excellent Game Plan
Inexperienced

Or any of a number of other similar things he shouldn't be our manager by the morning.

We had an excellent opportunity to win at Anfield today and have ended up clinging on to a draw.

Regardless of the team we put out if he thinks defending deep and punting it clear for 80minutes is is any way going to bring success in this league then he's deluded and a long way out of his depth.

Has us down for a defeat so the point is more than welcome. Couldn't face watching it but sounds like the defence deserve a huge amount of credit. 3 points Monday please.

Just about recovering from the nervous wreck I was during the 2nd half. A point well deserved for the lads who were out there. Thankfully results elsewhere have helped us a bit today.

Got to be seen as a point gained given the way it's panned out elsewhere. Bit disappointed with their goal as it looked like it was going to be our day. Hopefully there will be some fresh faces back for Monday and we can add some more points to the board.

Excellent and very valuable point. Players worked hard and defended well but why did we sit so deep for 80 minutes?

And since when did Sir Brian become a Liverpool fan?

difficult to watch the last few minutes - I was sweating.

Sir Brian gave the MOM award to Suarez....

Better. Still flaws. We need to keep possession..

But we had some young kids out there today and they did us proud. Samir Carruthers shoulda had a penalty. Ref is an idiot. Disgusting, really.

But hey, good point.

Shame Suarez is playing and healthy when far, far better men are out of the game ill is proof that the world is a shit place.

Same old bollocks. After the goal it all went downhill.

Spending 77 minutes defending the inevitable is not my idea of a decent game.

Almost the perfect day...almost

The most significant results today were Bolton and Blackburn losing, both in games they would have fancied getting something from, particularly the former. To lose 3-0 to a team like Fulham at home at this stage is a devastating result, imagine if that were us what the reaction would be on here. A win against Stoke Monday and I reckon we are almost there

How poor were Liverpool. They look a worse version of us under MON.

That's what happens when you buy British.

Job done, well done Villa, it wasn't pretty (is it ever) but we did it!

Well done to the youngsters for doing quite well in a tough game, and well done to the seniors for working with the youngsters to scrape a valuable draw.

we were wasteful going forward though. 2-3 times we had really good opportunities which amounted to absolutely nothing. gabby held the ball up well today, he is maturing as a striker....

We've really performed above my expectations in the last two games against Chelsea and now today. McLeish seems to be becoming more tactically aware and has shown it in both games with god subs such as Albrighton coming on last weekend and Gardner for Heskey today.

A promising result.

Will 37 points see us safe? I think we can get three more points from the remaining games.
