Quote from: Risso on August 25, 2022, 02:10:37 PMQuote from: ozzjim on August 25, 2022, 01:55:12 PMI thought he was our best player in the cup. Last December when we got some good early results he was very important too, mainly through knowing when to play the right pass on the break, but vital nonetheless. His leadership skills are miles ahead of the rest of the squad. He's too old and slow to be anything but a very short term stop gap at right back.True.But he still played well on Tuesday so credit where its due.

Showed his pace there.Feel there's some ageism going on!Should be judged by his performance and not his age.Experienced is clearly valued by Gerrard and rightly so.We're lucky to have someone of Ashley Young calibre for what he's achieved in the game.
Philip Coutinho says hello.
I was a little surprised that SG picked him on Tuesday to be honest. He had a decent game but then so would any stand in on our books have a decent game against Bolton and quite fittingly for that match, as far as Villa are concerned, is not Garlic Bread.
Our best player tonight. Superb performance.
One of the best players we had once he came on, great leadership as always and the tracking back vs De Bruyne was top class
