EPL 21/1/2008 - Liverpool vs Aston Villa

As this live commentary and play by play soccer game between two English Premier League teams Liverpool and Aston Villa prepare to get underway tonight, the pre-match talk continues to revolve around the boardroom struggle and takeover bids at Liverpool. The American owner Hicks is the real source of the problem with his outspoken ways and believing he can implement his American management methods on a traditional British football club whose fans will not have anything to do with him. In fact, it would be wise of Hicks and Gillett to sell their share of the club now and leave while they can still walk out of Anfield without any verbal and mental abuse from Liverpool fans. They do not know the Liverpool way and should not continue to hurt the club when they do not have the money nor resource to bring the club to the next level and cannot support manager Rafael Benitez with more quality buys like Fernando Torres. This game tonight though is important for Liverpool as they must definitely win to keep pace with the top three and get away from the chasing pack of Aston Villa and Everton who threaten to snatch the Champions League place away from Liverpool.

Aston Villa will not lie down and allow Liverpool to walk all over them in this live commentary and radio broadcast soccer match, as they are determined to get into Europe and possibly the Champions League for the first time. Their powerful striker Jon Carew has had a new lease of life at Villa Park and is showing all the skills and goal instinct that made him a household name for soccer fans in the past, and Aston Villa is reaping the rewards. Liverpool on the other hand has their new poster boy of Fernando Torres but he cannot do everything himself and desperately needs Benitez to get his tactics right in the English Premier League and for his other teammates to wake up and play properly to bring Liverpool to new and future glories.

The action in this live commentary and TV telecast soccer match of the two English Premier League teams Liverpool and Aston Villa promises to be non-stop and the drama continues to unfold over the fate of Liverpool and whether they will go bust, become another chapter in history or be revived and relive their glory days of the past, that is only likely to happen if the American owners sell the club and leave, and allow the Dubai group who claim to be real Liverpool fans, to manage and bring Liverpool onwards.

Even if Liverpool win tonight, i doubt that they can push the leaders to the title.

Yes, it is just to give an illusion to the fans that they can challenge on some level.
