 4thegame.com Teams: Squad Page: Gavin McCann
McCann made his Premiership debut with Everton but never had the chance to establish himself in the first team and was set for a move to Port Vale before Sunderland's Peter Reid was alerted and snapped up the youngster in 1998.
McCann was an integral part of the Sunderland set-up, becoming one of Peter Peter Reid's most exciting young players and earning an England cap under Sven Goran Eriksson.
The final straw for McCann came when he was not given his usual shirt number in the team, and so in July 2003 he left the club, signing a 3-year contract with David O'Leary's Aston Villa for £2.25million.

Gavin McCann has completed a swift return to the Premiership after signing a three-year deal with Aston Villa.

Sunderland boss Mick McCarthy admitted he was sad to see the player go, but conceded they have no choice but to let their stars go as they look to offset the costs bought on by their relegation from the top-flight.

 Aston Villa Blog - Gavin McCann: Just my opinion
Last week it was Mark Delaney and now it is Kevin Phillips who has come out to express their opinion on Gavin McCann and I'll be honest with you, I just don't see it.
Sure he slides in with a few tackles and as a defender you're happy with that as it's cleaning something up but you don't see McCann playing many killer balls through to the strikers - more often than not he is passing back or square.
I like statistics so you have to say Villa do play better with McCann - I just don't think he's the influence many people think he is and would rather they played somebody who added a little more.

After being individually involved with various bands, Redmaxx started making a collective noise in the summer of 1999, with a line up of Simon Hinksman on drums, Gavin McCann on guitar and vocals and Jezz Palmer on bass and vocals.
Initially taking their cues for sound and attitude from the more independently minded areas of alternative and punk, they soon began to adopt a wider field of influence and develop their own unique, tuneful and energy-charged sound.
Due for release on March 22nd 2004, the album features 11 songs, performed in their entirety by Simon and Gavin following Jezz's departure at the beginning of the year.
