Gerard Houllier says that both John Carew and Luke Young should be back for the Villa v Blues derby this weekend.
The Villa boss explained:
‘John Carew seems to have recovered from his flu. ‘We need everyone. Not having Gabby, it is good to have John and Emile. Marc Albrighton will be suspended. The boy is devastated – very downhearted. Luke Young should be involved.’
Meanwhile Gabby Agbonlahor is still not fit enough to return and Stiliyan Petrov is expected to be out for a few months with a knee injury. On the plus side, the Villa captain won`t need surgery as first feared.
