  One of the greatest No.9s of all time. It’s such a shame he doesn’t get talked about enough..he was literally the best No.9 in world football from 2008-2010. Not to forget man was a style icon as well..we all tried his soul patch and hairstyles back in the days :p

  David Villa was the final puzzle Spain needed to win trophies. A dependable goal scorer even in crunch situations which Spain are lacking now. Villa played mostly as a second striker and scored more than 400 goals in his career. Exquisite and eye catching footballer as well as being ambidextrous. Rare for a footballer. Legend of Spanish football

  Villa didn’t just assist players, he also assisted his clubs financially

  One of the Deadliest Finishers of the 21st Century…not sure why he doesn’t get the recognition as Torres, Eto’o etc..

  Forlan and Villa are the 2 most underrated strikers of the 21st Century: two-footed, lethal, prolific and winners

  I can't imagine how proud his father was seeing his son go all the way.

  What a dad and what a lad. In Spain we do remember him still, don't worry. He played a big part in both the golden era of the national team and of Barça.

  This guy was the reason I feel in love with football. The 2008 Euros and the 2010 World Cup. Not a spaniard but man was he an amazing player. Saddend that the injuries curtailed his career, Barça would have one another treble in 2011-12 had he been playing.

  I remember being infinitely frustrated by Villa being benched at Barcelona (as well as Tello) while Alexis Sanchez and Pedro were given every opportunity and they failed to use most of them. Villa remains my favourite player despite only being able to see him as a Barca fan for less than a season
