I posted a long time ago that when Alan Hutton leaves he goes with my utmost respect. His shortcomings as a footballer are well documented here but his professionalism and the manner in which he conducted himself are, in my opinion unquestionable. I'm quite saddened actually that his Villa career has been ended by injury if indeed that is the case. He deserved to play in the last home game to be given a final round of applause as a thank you by those that wished it. Thanks Alan, I'll always remember you as a Villa man.

A very poor player, whose legs are now gone.
Elmo proved time and again he is a better right back than a winger yesterday.. and with that proved he is the best right back at club by a mile.
