ON THIS DAY
Sunday, 21 November 2010
Villa lose for the first time in five but now have just one win in eight Premier League games under Gérard Houllier after failing to score for the fourth time.
Robert Pirès makes his Villa debut aged 37 after joining Villa as a free agent earlier this month. Pirès, a surprising signing, becomes the 830th player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football despite having already retired from first class football.
Brad Friedel concedes his 125th goal in a Villa shirt on his 103rd appearance to make it W46 D32 L25, 125 Goals Conceded at a rate of 1.21 goals per game, 33 Clean Sheets (32%), 1 Booking and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.
Luke Young makes his 75th appearance in a Villa shirt (73 Starts) to make it W32 D21 L22, 2 Goals and 12 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Ciaran Clark collects his 3rd Booking in a Villa shirt on just his 11th appearance (8 Starts) as it begins to become apparent that there may be disciplinary issues with the otherwise impressive youngster. Clark's record of W6 D3 L2 is tempered by his receiving of a caution every 3.67 games in his nascent Villa career.
Stephen Ireland makes his 10th appearance in a Villa shirt (7 Starts) and has contributed precisely nothing over the period save for 1 booking. Ireland's record stands at W2 D3 L5, 0 Goals and 0 Assists so far in his Villa career.
