The Legacy

Martin O'Neill guided Aston Villa to a sixth-place finish in the Premier League for 2008-2009. Gareth Barry captained the side throughout his final year at Villa Park before his departure to Manchester City. Gabriel Agbonlahor and Ashley Young provided pace on the flanks, while John Carew remained the primary target man in the attack. Nike supplied the kit during this period, which featured Acorns on the front. It was a year defined by a sustained push for a Champions League spot that ultimately fell just short of the top four.

Key Moment

The dramatic 2-0 victory against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium in November 2008, which signaled Villa's serious intent to challenge for a Champions League spot.
