MaVilla Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) Note: i didnt say "best", i said favourite, but if you want to put best that's also fine. Only other caveat is that it needs to be within your lifetime AND a player you remember playing from when you first started supporting Villa. I started supporting Villa in the early 90s, so here. is my favourite team since then. Bosnich Mellberg - Laursen - Barry Young - Milner - Petrov - Grealish Merson - Yorke Carew Edited March 21, 2020 by MaVilla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_eristic Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Found the club (or the club found me?) shortly before Lerner bought it. A mix of favorites and "bests" in the years I've been watching, though one player I loved to watch ruined himself in my mind to the point I couldn't include him. Friedel Mellberg - Laursen - Bouma Milner - Petrov - Barry Albrighton - Grealish - Young Benteke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nepal_villan Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Off the top of my head: Bosnich Delaney Laursen Ehiogu Bouma Young Milner Barry Grealish Yorke JPA Was hard to think of defenders that I really liked. JPA, Delaney and Bouma would probably not be in my Best XI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-R Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 For me the 93-94 coca cola cup winning team. Bosnich Barret-Mcgrath-Teale-staunton Atkinson-Richardson-Townsend-Daley Fenton Saunders But I did love other players as well like: Ehiogu, Draper, Yorke, Milosovic, Barry, Milner, Taylor, Joachim, Tommy Johnson, Wright, Dublin, Merson, sure there is more just can't think at this moment. I would say Southgate, but I wonder why no one ever really says him in threads like this, maybe it's because he's England manager and being a tool with our Jacky Boy has something to do with it lol.

KenjiOgiwara Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Guess I should say Bosnich, but can't remember much of him. Friedel/Schmeichel/Heaton maybe? No idea. Mellberg - Laursen - UDLC - Delaney- Wright Petrov - Milner - Merson Carew JPA Honourable mentions to Grealish, Taylor and Bouma. Barry deserves no mention.

They'd have kept any attack out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And your favourite ? I’m so torn as Bruce Rioch was my biggest hero, Little my favourite player, Mortimer the one I think had the biggest impact.
