Looks soulless and identikit, as remarkable as the Reebok in Bolton when it opened. The location adjacent the river is picturesque but I'd wager there is fuck all around the ground itself.

I know I'm old fashioned and out of step but the club will loose much of it's identity with the move. I recall my first visit to Liverpool (a 1-1 draw, Ian Olney for us). We parked near Stanley Park at the top of the hill, after the match you could see the floodlights of the huge Main Stand at Goodison (I'd yet to visit), shining brightly in the December gloom, must've been a reserve game or some such. Having the two clubs at either end of the park was a great feature, you could drink in the Everton pubs when visiting Anfield and vice versa.

Time moves in I know but Goodison Park holds some special memories for Villa Fans, never mind the Blue Scousers. Shame.

As much as it maybe inevitable, i hope we never move from VP in my lifetime.

There are not many "traditional" quality stadiums left in the top flight.

AC Milan level the tie in the fist minute.

Was it hand ball?

Goal  scored by the player they signed from Feyenoord just a few weeks ago. No such thing as Cup tied in the CL. Doesn't seem right.

They signed him AFTER they knew who they were playing in the tie as well, but I'm sure it is just coincidence. Release clause was met so I'm guessing Feynoord had no say in the matter at the point.

But we wouldn't be able to play Asensio in CL if those rules did apply.

Milan down to 10 men. Theo Hernandez gets a second yellow and is sent off for simulation. Good!

He’s looked crap, maybe a bullet dodged.

What's that Joao, out of the Champions League? Should have signed for a big club.
