Gerrard has not been good for him. Watching and listening to his current interview on Villa TV he was definitely not the old Ollie we have grown to love.

Very subdued no sparkle in his eyes only a rare smile very different from how he was in interviews prior to SG’s arrival.

Exactly the way he is playing.

One thing that was clear from today's game is that Ollie is still trying to close down and press the centre backs but getting played around and looking behind him at a team just sitting in their shape. This suggests a breakdown in team set up as Ollie should just sit and conserve energy. Either he is not following instructions or the rest of the team aren't. Either way a problem Gerrard needs to fix.

SG is a very unlikeable fella. No charm at all. Not sure he’s a very good manager either. Let’s hope Ollie finds form soon
When I was on holiday there was a chap from Liverpool in our hotel. He said he had come across Gerrard a couple of times and that Gerrard comes across very big time and not likeable at all.

I think Gerrard comes across very well as a manager, I enjoy listening to his interviews. Which is funny because I had no time for him as a player. It’s also funny that as a player I thoroughly enjoyed watching Frank Lampard as a player yet now he’s a manager it’s hard to find a bigger bell in football.

Anyway, Ollie Watkins, the boy’s still doing good.

One bloke we don’t want in charge is Stevie G when he gets sacked…he certainly can’t get a tune out of Ollie at the moment.

I disagree Gerrard goes on about what he’s going to do..be more positive etc etc….he’s been saying this for ages.
