Nigel Spink is more the quiet type like Brian Little.  Allan Evans is the motivator.  We have missed that brand of leadership on the pitch for years now.  When was the last time you saw a Villa captain on the pitch leading by example and urging on his players for 90 minutes non stop?  Mellberg? NRC with or without the armband?

Leadership is essential and there has been no leader with a vocal presence since Stan Petrov. He also fulfilled that middle of the pitch position that we haven't be able to replicate. There has been a big hole there for four years. Stan wasn't the greatest but he didn't have to be - he did his job very well. I truly thought that Sanchez would be the one to replace him - we all make mistakes.

What a great rant he's just done on Talksport.

I know not everyone is a fan but it's well worth a listen, digging out those players brilliantly!

He said yellow is an apt colour for the players to wear. Said Joleon Lescott was talking shit with the phone bollocks and challenged him to ting up and defend his comments today. Laid into Bacuna as well (haha he's doing it again as I type this) saying after the Southampton defeat he saw Bacuna in Birmingham Airport dicking about on his segway. He said Bacuna in particular is a disgrace.

Black needs to be told that we are to take a new approach starting next week. Let's get the kids in there and ditch the obvious fuckers.

What I liked about his rant was he admitted he was "crap" with us. Still "crap" enough to be a regular in the team that finished in top 7, went 12 games unbeaten at the start of 98 season and also score in a european quarter final.

So yeah his point was his worst for us was still miles better than what majority of this squad have come up with.

He has called Lescott a tit on Twitter this evening so he is obviously a bit angry!

I listened to the last hour or so and he hits the nail on the head so much when it comes to Villa. I particularly liked him calling Man City and Chelsea as lotto winners without any class.
Childish, I know, but feck it.
