Villa boss McLeish won't take advantage of Rangers woes in transfer market

Aston Villa boss Alex McLeish won't pick over the bones of Rangers - though is keen on released youngster Gregg Wylde.

Wylde is now a free agent.

McLeish said: "I wouldn't be comfortable at all about going back and plundering Rangers.

"I suppose Gregg Wylde is in a different situation because he has left the club. Whether we go for Gregg ... I think he is a player for the future personally. His people have been in touch but we haven't taken it any further.

"Maybe he could do some damage in a short space of time between now and the end of the season. But I have got great faith in the players that are here to show that they can get us up the table and catch Fulham.

"If we win tomorrow we are three points behind Fulham and that is what we have to focus on."
