mikeyp102 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 This thrash could go on forever.. From the youth team: Hendrie- could’ve done so much Moreno than he did Moore brothers Delfouneso Gabby Herd Lyden Fenton G gardner Could even say Albrighton and Bannan And many more... As for signings we’ll just in the last couple of years there are loads.. Most notably the likes of McCormack, Hogan and Tishbola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted December 5, 2018 Author Share Posted December 5, 2018 19 minutes ago, VillaChris said: Not true on the Lambert period.. He started Lambert's first game at West Ham and was then in and out of the side up to about November. He played really poorly in our infamous 12-0 xmas run and was then out of the squad for weeks before randomly starting the Bradford second leg which was his last game for us. Think I read Bolton had signed him on short term deal but he's injured again so career that has amounted to nothing. He was playing early on in that season and looked decent, but was put in the bomb squad after Christmas for god knows what reason. Was probably on really high wages, as Alan Hutton was similarly bombed out despite not being that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Moore brothers Bosko Balaban - was a coup at the time and wanted by some big teams in Europe Fabian Delph - always thought he was average at best for us Darius Vassell - could have done more with his career though feel O'Leary mismanaged him Delfouneso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvfcRigo82 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Andreas Wiemann - Supposed to be the next big thing for us in football only to turn out average and later fizzled out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the ingredients were there for a new cult hero, but Tim Sherwood put an abrupt end to that. Poor player with a shitty attitude. Agree with most of your list but not him. Wouldnt get in our Championship teams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Thug Posted December 5, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2018 Adama Traore. THE most exciting talent I can ever remember having at villa park. I sometimes wonder what he'd be like under Smith? And after a few minutes I conclude he'd still be shit. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lapal_fan Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Gary Gardner - yes, his 2 crippling knee injuries absolutely haven't helped, but he was touted as the next Gerrard. But I don't think he was ever technically as good, and losing your knees doesn't mean you cannot control and manipulate the ball as well. Gabby - Once he bulked up, he lost his X factor. Savo - Never quite got there with us, left us for Zaragoza and did really well in Spain. Luke Moore - was meant to be better than Rooney in 2002 Delfonenso - Was bigged up as being a little Drogba. Baros - Might be a bit unfair, as his scoring record was never brilliant, but he coasted whilst he was here. Salifou - Never did quite reach Zidane's level 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
