Aston Villa Review: Our all-time lifetime sometime-ish Villa XI

How many current Villa players would make the best XI of the last 40 years?

Just how good is the current squad and which players, if any, would make it into the best eleven of our lifetimes?

Aston Villa have had some unbelievable players in the last 40 years. Some have won a trophy, others have taken the club into the Champions League, but how do today’s players stack up against yesterday’s legends?

Does Ollie Watkins make the cut as Villa’s top Premier League goalscorer? Do today’s top-class midfielders have the edge over the warriors who wowed us in the nineties? Have we ever had a genuinely excellent right-back?

Chris Nee and Steven Green discuss all that and more in the new episode of AVR.
