Ex-Villa defender Laursen: I would love to be manager

Recently retired Aston Villa defender Martin Laursen insists that he would one day love to manage the club.

The 33-year old former Denmark international was forced to retire from the game in May 2009 because of chronic knee problems but will now go about getting his coaching badges with the view to becoming Villa boss sometime down the track.

"It would be great to be Villa manager one day. That would be a big dream. But that's a long way off," he said.
