Mellberg wants strong finish

Mellberg wants strong finish

27 March 2008 - 21:31

Aston Villa defender Olof Mellberg is hoping that the club put in a strong finish as they continue to challenge for a fifth placed spot in the Premiership. Villa have been one of the Premiership's most improved sides this season under Martin O'Neill - and Mellberg hopes they continue the trend before he leaves for Juventus.

  • Confirmed Liverpool line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Aston Villa, Gravenberch starts
  • Predicted Man Utd line-up (3-4-2-1) vs Nottm Forest, Sesko dropped

  • "It would be nice to finish on a high and qualify for Europe and for the club to take another step next season," he said.



    "It will be (hard to leave). I've had a great time, my best footballing years, and made many friends.



    "I feel a lot for the club and for the fans and people within the club as well. It's been a great time.



    "We're still challenging for the Intertoto with Man City and Portsmouth so you still have a chance to qualify for Europe.



    "We've got good young talented players as well who are doing well so I think the future is bright."
