I remember reading some time back when he was a regular in the England squad that his Villa contract was like £3k per week. Everyone around him was earning £40k+ but he was still on his first pro deal that spanned for 5 years and he never got a pay rise!
He never moaned about it in the press or anything so fair play to him...
An impressive quality of slag that they've put on for him.
Three interesting facts about Darius
Darius scored on his England debut
Darius was mugged and relieved of 23grand's worth of tacky sh1te
Darius once missed several matches after accidentally drilling through is foot with a powertool
Vassells England record is fairly decent from what I remember, sure he scored a fine goal against Holland on debut, a crucial goal in the Euro qualifiers against Turkey and went to two major tournaments.
Not a bad player, just never scored enough goals or utilised his pace enough. Interested to see how well he does at Championship level.
