All Time Worst XI

[ADVILLAFAN]

How often did Aleksander "crap with both feet" Tonev play for us?

My recollection is he played a fair amount in 2013/14. Maybe not many subs but he came on as sub fairly regularly. N'zogbia didn't play a single game that season so I presume he was injured and Albrighton was on his way out.

Soccerbase has it as 17 prem appearances and three games in the cup so 20 over the season.

Thanks SHQ. So he played far too much.

Only a few games for this guy but Didier Agathe was absolutely useless.

[Witton Warrior]

It will always be Stephen "stinker" Ireland for me in any rubbish 11 - we used to watch his warm-up flicks and tricks and then see if we could spot him when the match started. Remarkably poor

Agathe reminded me of De La Cruz a bit, full of running up and down the right but the end product was very often lacking. He was someone who'd done very well at Celtic for MON so was just brought in on the right as think Delaney got another injury that eventually forced him to retire.

Desperate times. MO'N came in quite late in the window, so didn't have much time to line up signings. I think Stan was the only one we paid a fee for. Agathe and Sutton were both free agents that O'Neill knew, so he brought them in.

3 pages in and not a mention of Steve Hodge, he'd be in my worst 11.

Worst XI for being a twat, maybe, but not as a player.

Yes, I'd go along with that too.

I once heard him interviewed about his time at Villa. I took from it that he thought Villa were better than they actually were, as though he was naive for joining Villa in the first place.

[dcdavecollett]

I read somewhere that Hodge joined Villa and was looking forward to playing alongside Steve McMahon in midfield.

Shortly after Hodge signed, McMahon left Villa for Liverpool.
