I loved him more than he probably warranted, he ticked all the boxes for me - homegrown/Villa fan*, technically very gifted and always celebrated a goal like one of us would i.e. by going feckin' mental.
Always stuck up for him on here even when he made it difficult to do so. I think only Jane H&Ver was more of a fan!
I'm quite impressed at how polished he has become as a pundit because some of the off-the-field stuff he got up to suggested that he'd never grow-up.
I haven't watched this but will do so, cheers.
*Yes, his family was Blose which casts aspersions on his credentials but he was with us from 15-30, that's Villa enough for me.
