‘I cannot imagine one Premier League manager wanting an Aston Villa player’ - Carragher

Published on: 15 February 2016

Liverpool great Jamie Carragher believes that Aston Villa are currently one of the worst teams to have played in the Premier League.

The Sky Sports pundit claims that he can't see any Premier League clubs wanting any of the Villa players such is their horrible form of late.

The Midlands club suffered an embarrassing 6-0 defeat against Liverpool on Sunday.

"They are an embarrassment and they have been for a few years," he said on Sky Sports' Super Sunday.

"It won't be that team in the Championship, they'll change it obviously, but if that team is in the Championship it will be closer to the bottom than the top - there's no doubt about that.

"I was thinking about how difficult it is for young kids. The dream is to play in the Premier League. If you watch Aston Villa it gives you hope with how that group of players are playing in the Premier League, at that level.

"I always think when teams go down there's always two or three players where other managers in the Premier League will try and take them.

"I can't imagine one Premier League manager looking at that team and thinking there's one player there he'd want to take into his squad. That's how poor they are."
