We were well in the mix all the way, I remember a potentially huge game against Newcastle which ended up being a 0-0 damp squib. We also managed to be the only team to finish 6th in christ knows how long to not even get a UEFA Cup place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobby Solano was the key signing. In true Villa fashion we then went 10 to 16th the following 2 seasons before Lerner's takeover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always remember going fulham away on a mideeek night when they were playing at Loftus Road. The night delaney got done by Bocanegra. He was so good that night. Totally changed our play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a maverick, that goal against Spurs from a corner where he controlled, tee'd it up and then smashed it with a bicycle kick was the stuff of legends..... Bit of trivia for you guys, which International midfielder made his first senior league start for Villa in that game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
