Aston Villa, just like all other big clubs in England, have had their fair share of under-performers and flops over the years, some of whom stand out more than others.
From players who couldn’t hit a barn door to serial blunderers and expensive transfer mistakes, a few are recent while plenty are from periods gone by.
We thought it would be a bit of fun to ask Villa fans on Facebook who they think are contenders to take the crown for the worst Villan of them all. The responses were vast, to say the least, as supporters reflected on the past.
Flick through the pages to see 26 of the worst players, all of whom have been directly selected by Villa fans.
5. Eric Djemba-Djemba
Another with numerous nominations, Djemba Djemba played just 11 times for the Villans after signing from Manchester United. The defensive midfielder accumulated only 466 minutes. | AFP via Getty Images
6. Sasa Curcic
The Yugoslavian looked great at Bolton Wanderers but flopped at Villa. “I was so excited to see him come and play but I was so disappointed,” one Villan said. | Getty Images
7. Joleon Lescott
As the picture suggests, Lescott was a failure in B6. His attitude and lack of effort - despite being a Villa fan himself - were looked down upon and are remembered to this day. | Getty Images
8. Ross McCormack
One of the biggest disappointment signings ever. The Scotsman joined for £13 million and then only scored three times in 24 games before heading to Australia. | Getty Images
