Here we go again, the Ultimate XI bandwagon rolls on... in this episode, the brilliant football presenter and reporter Dan Bardell is up and running as manager of Aston Villa and his first duty is to pick his Ultimate XI. No mean feat considering some of the iconic players to have played for the Midlands' side over the years, but Dan charges fearlessly into picking his squad and, as is becoming custom for Ultimate XI managers, tries to hide a largely attack-minded team behind a traditional formation. Navigating the one personally-imposed selection criteria that could see his team of favourite Villains change in the next 3 to 5 years, listen as Dan's eleven reveals itself to include many club heroes; including one who is supposedly still playing football in his home country into his 50s (source: Wikipedia), another who is officially the smallest Premier League player ever (source: Wikipedia), and someone who has been dubbed the best footballer to ever don the claret and blue of Aston Villa (source: Dan's dad).
