The fact he did play for so many great clubs is a bit baffling though. What an agent. Saw a post earlier saying similar about Samatta, just like Cissokho was a lot worse people that have played for Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaJ100 Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 The worst! Bennett made Cissokho look like Maldini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 In 4 years or something, we had a sequence of Bennett, Luna, Cissokho and Richardson at left back. And I started that sequence thinking Stephen Warnock was a bit shit . . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started with Nicky Shorey btw who was also dreadful and quickly dropped. So much money we wasted when Bouma and Laursen got those injuries in 08/09. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 In true villa style i faintly recall him having a pretty good debut, think he even got forward and put one or two decent crosses in. Then went to shit, by and large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie09 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Worst left back I’ve ever seen in a Villa shirt and I began watching Villa when Vic Crowe was manager. He couldn’t even kick a ball properly, a chap who sits near me in the Holte called him Cissocrap which summed him up to a tee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That guy in The Holte must be a right bell end. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought this sort of playground name calling was something that people posted on here but wouldn’t actually say in person. This was an adult? Sounds like something a child who’s just learnt a few swear words would find funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 All of the above is why we should be eternally grateful for Matt Targett. He is the LB who was prophesied to take us to glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porto Lyon Valencia Liverpool Aston Villa Porto again Olympiakos And would have included AC Milan, had he not failed his medical when they agreed to sign him from Porto - because they thought his teeth weren't in good enough condition.
