ON THIS DAY

Saturday, 26 July 2008

  • Villa finish the job over Odense as epic failure Djemba-Djemba returns to Villa Park with his new club.

  • Right back Wilfred Bouma, 30, suffers a Villa career ending injury that would keep him on the sidelines for 12 months only to be ignored for selection on his recovery. Bouma would return to PSV Eindhoven in August 2010, an outstanding right back whose injuries limited his appearances for Villa meant he left with a record of 90 Appearances (87 Starts), W32 D29 L29, 1 Goal, 3 Assists and 7 Bookings - far less than his talent should have allowed. 

  • Goalkeeper Stuart Taylor, 27, makes his 17th and final appearance for Villa aged 27 before moving on to Manchester City on a free transfer in July 2009. Taylor left with a record of W4 D8 L5, 24 Goals Conceded at 1.41 goals per game and 3 Clean Sheets.

  • Stiliyan Petrov secures his 25th win in a Villa shirt on his 67th appearance (60 Starts) to make it W25 D23 L19, 3 Goals, 1 Assist and 7 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
