ON THIS DAY
Thursday, 29 December 2016
Villa end 2016 in transformed form under Steve Bruce as they make it seven wins and three draws in thirteen Championship matches under the new boss.
Steve Bruce's Villa end the year unbeaten in three as a late Jonathan Kodjia penalty secures a point against 4th placed Leeds, as a result Villa climb to 9th as Bruce's first thirteen games continue to show a significant improvement over Di Matteo's twelve match reign.
Jordan Amavi makes his 25th start in a Villa shirt (31 Appearances) to make it W9 D9 L13, 4 Assists and 5 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
James Chester collects his 5th booking on his 23rd appearance in a Villa shirt to make it W9 D11 L4 and 6 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Jordan Ayew, one of the poster boys of Villa's descent into the second tier, makes his final appearance in a Villa shirt, aged 25. Ayew left for Swansea in a swap deal that brought left back Neil Taylor to the club as well as £5,310,000. Villa had signed Ayew from FC Lorient in July 2015 for a fee of £10,800,000 and went on to make 58 appearances (48 Starts) to leave with a record of W11 D18 L29, 10 Goals, 4 Assists, 13 Bookings and 1 Red Card.
Rudy Gestede, one of the poster boys of Villa's appalling recruitment in the last half decade, makes his final appearance in a Villa shirt, aged 28. Gestede moved on to Middlesbrough for £6,390,000 having made 55 appearances, 29 as a substitute, in his two seasons with Villa to leave with a record of W9 D16 L30, 10 Goals, 4 Assists and 5 Bookings.
