When you look at the dross that have been capped by England over the last ten years its bizarre he's never had a single call up. Without a doubt had he ever played for, lets say, Tottenham I honestly think he'd have double figures caps.He's our own James milner not a superstar but always gives 100 percent.

Exactly!!!Andros Townsend 13 caps. ????????
As good as he has been for us I don't think he was international standard but then again dier played for England so who knows.When you look at the dross that have been capped by England over the last ten years its bizarre he's never had a single call up.

I actually agree that he probably never was England class, my point being he'd have had a lot of caps if he played for Tottenham. Read and weep this list of players capped whilst playing for Spurs, not all wide players but it takes some believing,,As good as he has been for us I don't think he was international standard but then again dier played for England so who knows.
That ball for Daka to score......
He always did a job for Villa so my Villa mate says.If he wasn’t so good for Villa that probably explains why. I’m guessing he wasn’t setting the world alight otherwise they wouldn’t have boned him off on a free.

It's all about opinions and maybe the manager of the time wanted a winger who played differently. Maybe the manager wad carp not the player?
Thats absolutely it....Vile fans were gutted when they realised he was being released...he was gutted and was in tears...Im glad he came to City...great servant to the club...I think he was out of contract at Villa and the stupid manager didnt rate him

I think Villa genuinely forgot about him. I’m sure there was an interview with Marc where he said he waited expecting to be offered a new contract & when this didn’t happen, his agent’s calls weren’t returned.Paul Lambert was the manager. Villa were making a lot of signings and had little manoeuvrability. I can't quite recall whether Albrighton was told he would not be offered improved terms; whether he was asked to take a play-as-you-play deal, or whether he was shown the door altogether. Either way, Albrighton was only on £8k/wk and City didn't mess about as they doubled it to £16k/wk to make him an LCFC player. Bargain.
