ON THIS DAY
Villa drew their second consecutive home game against a Sunderland side with future Villa 'keeper Thomas Sorensen in their ranks, but had now been beaten only once in the last 19 Premier League outings.
Full back Najwan Ghrayib made his final appearance for Villa aged 26 before returning to Hapoel Haifa for a fee of £150,000 in July 2000. Not for the first time Villa’s transfer policy under John Gregory came into question. Gregory had signed Ghrayib from Hapoel less than 9 months earlier for £900,000. Ghrayib made 6 appearances for Villa in that time.
