ON THIS DAY
Sunday, 23 November 2003
Villa's concerning form under David O'Leary continues as they lose for the second successive game with just two wins in thirteen.
Villa's season descends further into the mire as they extend their winless run to 7 games under David O'Leary.
Villa fall to 18th, in the relegation places, and in real danger of outdoing even the torrid 2002-03 campaign.
Villa were desperately in need of inspiration but there was simply no-one of that calibre available in a largely workmanlike squad if talisman Juan Pablo Ángel was not firing.
Peter Whittingham contributes his 5th goal involvement in a Villa shirt on his 19th appearance (15 Starts) to make it W5 D6 L8, 1 Goal, 4 Assists and 2 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Marcus Allbäck scores his 1st goal in 10 games, his 1st goal under David O’Leary and his 7th goal in a Villa shirt on his 34th appearance (18 Starts) to make it W13 D8 L13, 7 Goals, 1 Assist and 2 Bookings at a goal involvement rate of one for every 4.25 games played so far in his Villa career.
