Mark Draper - World class player.

[@charlesmanimala]

I would like to play for an Italian club like barcelona : Mark Draper

[@instinctstu]

Gregory era.....was a good time to be a Villa fan! I reckon the current Villa dressing room could do with some of the spirit seen here.

[@Sthelensvillain]

Hazing of the highest order

[@irishroverX]

Its a pity they dont do things like this at clubs anymore. Its a sterile, miroscopic environment at clubs now. And with such a high turnover of playing staff and managers also. The media havent helped in that regard either as players basically live in bubbles.

[@InYourHeadChangedMan]

He was a good player though, John Gregory obviously rated him by saying Mark Draper will play for England if he wants to

[@pearljam619]

Dressing room banter is a thing of the past. A very sad state of affairs.

[@slinafirinne9048]

In fairness I wouldn't say the rest of the team were too bright either it just seems like Draper was picked on here but he was a quality player had Charisma and scored sum great goals for Villa

[@The_Bit_Player]

Sounds like a smashing lad.

[@johnhuwroberts7766]

Say what you like, you lad could play. He’s got quite a career to be be proud of. Mastermind? Never. Footballer? Top lad!

[@DamianBrown]

quality!

[@Daniel-ll3qp]

Imagine him and Carlton Palmer at centre mid for England. I'm having nightmares just pondering it.

[@BroskiRIP]

Draper had more natural ability than Steven Gerrard, he just didn't have the same drive. England's greatest player that could have been, such a shame.

If you tried to do this now it would be so bad, because of the language differences
