Comments
captdave - 17-Oct-11 12:35 A very strange formation for Aston Villa in this game, with Heskey playing as a midfielder and Ireland playing very advanced in support of Bent and Agbonlahor. At times it looked like a 4-2-3-1 with Agbonlahor pulling left and Heskey right, but Bent and Agbonlahor were very much a front two for most of the game.
