This could be an eventful day. And then again, no- as Elton John would say. I'm not sure what the implications will be of having a whole round of Premier League fixtures on the same evening as the transfer deadline, but to me it sounds a spot iffy. For managers looking to get shot of a bit of dead wood, I suppose, it's probably ideal.

Looking around this morning, it's probably best to start with positive injury news, which unfortunately comes almost exclusively in terms of Villa missing players.
It seems that Bent, Heskey, Herd and possibly also Collins are out for Villa.

Aston Villa v Liverpool – as it happened

Liverpool scored from two early corners and strolled to victory against a poor, pretty much attack-free Aston Villa side Preamble: Aston Villa must carry particularly good memories for Liverpool fans. I'm not even a Liverpool fan, but I can remember half a dozen stonking moments between these two clubs.

It'll seem as if Liverpool are playing nearly every day over the next few weeks, with eight matches in a month, but there's probably little point in wholesale changes just yet.

Premier League team news - ESPN Soccernet: There are a fair number of interesting line-up machinations related to injuries, suspensions, and transfers. For all of the fantasy implications for this weekend, here is everything you need to know: Aston Villa: Looks like Gabby and Heskey are very likely to be healthy for the match against Wolves.

A game that threatened to spring into life on a couple of occasions but, in the end, failed to deliver.

We may be five weeks into our competative campaign but there was still a buzz surrounding the opening league fixture. The sun was out and a clear run to the ground provided plenty of time for a pre-game beer by the riverside.

Charles N'Zogbia matched Darren Bent's achievement of scoring on his debut in tonight's final pre-season game in Braga; a 1-1 draw that would probably be given to the home side on points by the judges. If we did such a thing.

Vagner Love's stunt double, Alan, opened the scoring for the home side with a wicked effort from 25 yards that nestled the top corner and left Shay Given no chance.

Hello? Is this thing on? Is anyone still there?
After a week-or-so hiatus (okay, probably longer than a week but who's counting?), The Boys From White Hart Lane comes storming back into your blogosphere with the excited fervour usually reserved for a night at Faces. With Spurs action on the blink of late, save for a thoroughly underwhelming 0-0 draw with West Ham, traffic on this blog took a bit of a nose-dive but, after a meeting of minds at the top, it was decided that swift and resolute action needed to be taken.

Jamie Carragher believes that Liverpool new boy Andy Carroll strikes fear into his opponents.
The 22-year-old forward joined the Merseyside outfit in the January transfer window, after the Reds agreed to cough up £35 million to Newcastle United in exchange for the services of the hitman.
"We've had big tall lads, people like Heskey or Crouch, who have done very well for us," Carragher told LFC Weekly.

By Ollie Irish

It's Carra's 33rd birthday today. Hats off to a man for all seasons, a man of the people, a man of so many faces...

Confused.

Immensely proud.

Stoic.

Did I leave the gas on?
