MATCHDAY SQUAD
Without a shadow of doubt the worst squad to ever represent Villa at any level.
Yet putting aside the appalling judgement in the transfer market shown by the Villa hierarchy just how was it possible to compete with the likes of new money city when a single player on the opposition bench cost more than all Villa’s 14 players combined.
In total Manchester City fielded a squad costing £335m with two home nation players and not a single one home grown. Chelsea on steroids with an equally inglorious past.
