On This Day
Villa are held at home by Tottenham despite dominating the game to sit 14th in the first division table after seven games.
Villa fail to score for the third time in seven and have now recorded just two wins this season under Ron Atkinson.
Tony Daley makes his 175th start in a Villa shirt (205 Appearances) to make it W72 D52 L81, 30 Goals and 23 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 3.87 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
What they Said
“For passing and control it was our best performance of the season.”
Ron Atkinson.
TEENAGE goalkeeper lan Walker had Tottenham's fans drooling again at Villa Park.
And after his third consecutive clean sheet they are beginning to believe he will become as big a hit as the peerless Pat Jennings.
Walker, the 19-year-old currently keeping Norwegian star Erik Thorstvedt out of the side, has already wowed the fans this season with a one-handed catch in the heat of the match at Nottingham Forest the kind of save that was almost a trade mark of former Spurs and Northern Ireland legend Jennings.
Walker didn't need such showmanship this time, but he still caught everything Villa could throw at him with a confidence that bordered on arrogance.
Villa ran the game and Spurs' £3m strike force of Gary Lineker and Gordon Durie hardly got a kick.
Villa manager Ron Atkinson could not be challenged when he declared:
“For passing and control it was our best performance of the season."
But Walker stopped it being a winning one as well with a 73rd minute save that defied Shaun Teale's close range header.
