Your worst ever Villa player

[Des Little]

The very fact that N'Zog has cost us £211k per game in his 5 years here makes him by far the winner of this particular competition.

Ormondroyd, I felt sorry for him every time he touched the ball, so bad he inspired pity and scorn in equal measure. He did try though, bless him.

He was also a regular in a team that finished runners-up in the league so he can't have been that bad, but what's that compared to the chance of a cheap joke?

I thought he was brilliant when he switched over to left wing and scored a massively important goal at Derby.

End of the matter FACT ( I think)

I thought he was brilliant when he switched over to left wing and scored a massively important goal at Derby.

I remember that too, he struggled a bit at the end of his first season but then Sir Graham moved him to the wing and he was a revelation. The home game against Coventry seemed to be the catalyst, Daley set him up to smash one into the top corner after about ten minutes and his confidence went through the roof. He scored a header in the second half (we won 4-1) and went on to have a great season. Scored a belter away at Spurs in February too, the day I thought we might go on to win the league. Days later Wimbledon did their Wimbledon thing. Ormondroyd shouldn't be anywhere near anyone's list of worst ever Villa player. He made a bloody good contribution.

[The Left Side]

I think the televised game against Everton was also one of the highlights of his career.

As mentioned he wasn't exactly our greatest player, but was a regular in a team that finished runners up and could never be criticised for lack of effort, and yes that goal at Spurs was a belter, and it helped put us top of the league for the first time ever in Doug's time in charge - bless him he just had to mention that after the game !

[Deano's Mullet]

Good goal  vs QPR at home in the Venglos season too. Was a stunner.

[Cliftonville Villain]

Nothing but good memories of Ian Ormondroyd...in a great side also (apart from the Venglos season). My vote goes to our current captain Richards - an absolutely disastrous signing. Apparently there's a player in there somewhere...nah.

[dave shelley]

Worst in attitude definitely, worst player in ability?  I'm afraid there's a good few ahead of him in that regard, you only have to go back to the beginning of this thread to see that.  All opinion of course.

Take your pick from the current crop

[Allan C]

I started going in 1969/70 with my dad so I've seen some shockers but for me, Gestede is by far the worst. I still can't believe the money we spent on him.

[rob_bridge]

For overall non contribution over an extended period of time and weighing up the costs it has to be CNZ.

[Walmley_Villa]

Lescott for me closely followed by Richards - 'Rabbit Hearts' in the defence of my worst ever Villa side..

Ireland was 3 years of Bad Shit. CNZ was 5 years.
