Aston Villa boss Martin O'Neill says his training ground clash with Nigel Reo-Coker is now forgotten.

O'Neill has been delighted with the player's attitude and has challenged him to reproduce his form in training in matches.

The manager said: "I think we've moved on. In the training sessions with Nigel in the last couple weeks he's been really excellent.

"What he wants to do is transfer the confidence from the training matches and start taking it up and using it in for sustained periods in games."
