ON THIS DAY
Sunday, 26 September 2010
Villa record their first Premier League win of the season under Gérard Houllier as Wolves are beaten at Molineux.
Gérard Houllier seems to help his cause to overturn the doubters by securing a first away League win of the season at the first attempt as Emile Heskey scores for the second game in succession as his revival under Houllier continues. Villa rise to 5th in the early Premier League table with 10 points from 6 games.
Yet the suitability of Houllier to the role is totally undermined when it is revealed that he is yet to sign a contract to manage Villa. Having agreed to take over in 8 September - and wilfully delayed his start - he had subsequently not signed a contract attempting to justify his actions by saying “This is not important. I think at Liverpool, I didn’t sign until November or December.” Of course anyone even on nodding terms with reality knew that this wasn’t strictly true and so Houllier simply reinforced the suspicions of many that this wasn’t a manager committed to the Villa cause.
Stephen Warnock contributes his 5th assist and secures his 25th win in a Villa shirt on his 49th appearance to make it W25 D13 L11, 1 Goal, 5 Assists and 6 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
