I joined Aston Villa to improve myself in the Premier League. It started well but then I got injured and Villa ended up having five managers that season.

Adama Traore

Aston Villa had been in touch and they'd gone into the Premier League so I knew I could play in the Premier League just like that.

Kalvin Phillips

It can be United or Aston Villa or Chelsea or whoever. I just want to win, and if I can score a goal against them, I'll be buzzing.

Wilfried Zaha

Hopefully I can challenge myself and establish myself as a Premier League player for Aston Villa.

John McGinn

Aston Villa were signing this player and that player, and I was thinking this is my chance to get to the Premier League. I was a little bit over-eager to join them.

Ross McCormack

Stats can do anything you wish. When we got the sack at Aston Villa it came out there had only been Man City in that calendar year who had scored more goals than Villa.

Steve Bruce

It's very exciting, everyone wants to see Aston Villa back in the Premier League and kicking on from there. It's great to see this club with such a rich history of being in the top flight, it's an exciting prospect.

Mile Jedinak

I knew my knee was getting worse at Villa. The first season was dreadful and we went down. But speak to the Villa fans - take away the last three years - they were saying at the start that I should be playing for England.

Micah Richards

I've said it for a long time that Aston Villa is a special club.

Steve Bruce

Aston Villa have literally metaphorically had their pants pulled down

Dion Dublin

Even when I went to Aston Villa, it was very important that I was not in competition with Manchester United.

Peter Schmeichel

Best performance of the year: Aston Villa v. Milan, September 1994

Alec Guinness

It's such a crazy league, the Championship. People used to say that to me, and when you are in the Premier League, you don't really take notice. It's a good league; it's tough, and I like it. But the Premier League is where I want to be, with Villa.
