Worst Villa Debuts
« on: September 11, 2011, 07:07:34 PM »
In light of Hutton's ragged debut yesterday, who else has stunk out the shirt on their debut?

I'll start with the obvious - Ugo Ehiogu

Ugo was right back against arsenal wasnt he ?-yes a dreadful debut that one.
Id go for lee hendrie, sent off at qpr on his debut i believe.

Was this home to Norwich when we lost 3-2?? Every time he got the ball the ground went so quiet cause we were all filled with fear. He was shocking,he did turn it around though.

Bouma at West Ham was pretty crap, Harewood getting a hattrick in a dismal Monday nighter.

Stuart Taylor's debut was a crappy 3 1 defeat, where Vassell scored twice.

Another vote for Ugo.
After being 'bigged up' by Big Ron before his debut he had an absolute stinker.

Ehiogu's first game was in a 3-1 win over Arsenal. He debuted at right back before losing his place after two games to Dariusz Kubicki.

The Norwich game was his first start at centre-half, but it was more than a year after his debut.

George 'the legend' Boateng was pretty atrocious in his first few games at Villa.

Ditto N'Zogbia.

Correct - I was sitting behind Nigel Kennedy and his family. He was giving it some mouth, whilst his family looked on bewildered (by Nigil's behaviour, not the  sending off). I seem to remember QPR players pleading with the ref not to send him off.

Bouma was woeful for about 6 months wasn't he. He did also turn it around.

Ken McNaught by a long way and for a while not just 1 game.
