ON THIS DAY

Saturday, 20 August 2005

Villa suffer a narrow defeat at Old Trafford to leave them winless in their first two Premier League games of the season under David O'Leary as his sniping at his own players immediately comes to the fore.
Olof Mellberg collects his 15th booking in a Villa shirt on his 154th appearance to make it W53 D42 L59, 5 Goals, 5 Assists and 15 Booking at a rate of a card every 10 games so far in his Villa career.
