ON THIS DAY
Tuesday, 21 September 1999
Villa hammer fourth tier side Chester in the return leg of their League Cup second round tie.
Jlloyd Samuel, 18, makes his debut in a Villa shirt as a 51' substitute after graduating from the youth team to become the 741st player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football.
Ugo Ehiogu makes his 250th start in a Villa shirt (266 Appearances) to make it W122 D59 L85, 14 Goals, 7 Assists, 35 Bookings and 2 Red Cards so far in his Villa career.
Darius Vassell makes his 1st start in a Villa shirt on his 16th appearance to make it W8 D0 L8, 2 Goals and 1 Assist so far in his Villa career at a goal involvement rate of one for every 5.33 games played so far in his Villa career as expectations around the young striker diminish somewhat.
Albeit against Third Division Chester, George Boateng scores his 1st goal in a Villa shirt on his 7th appearance (5 Starts) to make it W6 D1 L20, 1 Goal and 1 Booking so far in his Villa career.
