He was comfortably one of of the only decent players for us last season, but that's not hard in the shower of shite we had. His stats are better than the results of his performances if you know what I mean. All the interceptions, tackles and completed passes never amounted to having much of an influence on a game. For 2 or 3 games he looked excellent, but was pretty anonymous / not bothered for plenty of others.
He always said Villa was a stepping stone for him so never committed to the cause and when our season fell apart he didn't do much to help.
For £7m it's a steal though - he'll probably look much better in a team that isn't complete crap.
In other news - very happy to have McCormack coming in. Need someone in midfield now and we're looking slightly less awful.
@villa-ru ^ this fella any good?
