Steve Bruce's warning to Villa:-
“It’s like always when you got back to a club. I had the privilege to manage it,” Bruce told reporters at his pre-match press conference.
“It was a great club. You’re always disappointed when it ends. Of course, I thought I would have a but more time but that was not the case after a difficult period at the club.
“Financially, it was in a difficult place. We nearly got there - lost in the play-off final - but overall, looking back on it, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
“It’s a great club with great tradition, great history. I want to go back and beat them - simple as that!”
