Cuellar delighted breaking Villa scoring duck

Aston Villa defender Carlos Cuellar was delighted to grab his first goal for the club in their rout of Bolton Wanderers.

The Spaniard's first Villa goal coincided with a return to his favoured central defensive role, after a run of games at right-back.

Cuellar revealed his delight at getting off the mark for the club and insisted he is happy to play in whichever position he is required.

He told AVTV: "I am happy with that because it was my first goal.

"I feel good now because I have been here one year without scoring and I feel happy for me and for the team. We produced a brilliant performance. The team had very good possession and scored some very good goals.

"I enjoy it always, whether I play in the centre or the right. The most important thing is to be in that first 11."
