Steven Gerrard got a win over his former manager, Brendan Rodgers, on Sunday as his Aston Villa side gained a solid 2-1 victory against Leicester City. George & Frankie discuss how the game followed a similar pattern to the previous City match, where Villa were somewhat unconvincing in the first-half but raised their game impressively in the second-half.
There is high praise again for Marvelous Nakamba and especially John McGinn, who was exceptional at Villa Park. George & Frankie also discuss Gerrard’s tactical approach and how Villa looked comfortable and effective at changing formation during a game.
In the ‘Spicy Question’ feature, the hosts give their thoughts on whether Tyrone Mings has done enough to keep the Villa captaincy (spoiler alert, they both really like Mings).
We also look ahead to Saturday’s game at Anfield against a hugely in-form Liverpool. The match of course will see Gerrard return to Anfield, meaning there will be high emotion and drama surrounding the game… but can Villa get a result? Frankie & George believe it is possible, though stopping Mo Salah, who is arguably the world’s best player, will be no simple task.
