From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Jlloyd Samuel (born March 29, 1981 in Trinidad) currently plays for Aston Villa F.C. as a defender.
Samuel's debut came after 51 minutes of a second-leg League Cup match against Chester City F.C., on September 21, 1999 which finished 5-0 in Aston Villa's favour.
Since the beginning of his Aston Villa career, he has also been on loan to Gillingham F.C., for whom he made seven full appearances and one substitute appearance, between October 25 and December 3, 2001.
Though looking set for the 2002 European Under-21 Championships, Samuel picked up a groin injury which ensured his being out of action for a sustained period of time.
When Graham Taylor took over the reins at Aston Villa, Samuel became more assured of a place on the team, despite his nervousness on the pitch. His star season, however, was 03/04, as he rose to become one of the best left-backs in the Premiership and was selected in the England squad for the game against Sweden, although his involvement only went as far as being an unused substitute.
