Villa striker Robinson proud of breakthrough season

Aston Villa striker Callum Robinson is proud of his breakthrough season.

Robinson managed to make his Premier League debut late in the campaign.

He told Villa's website: "It's been a season I wouldn't have expected really. So many positive things have come from it.

"I made my debut in September in a Capital One Cup game - and then I was on the bench about six or seven times in the Barclays Premier League.

"Then I made my debut against Southampton and the Villa fans were incredible that day.

"The reception was something I could never have dreamt of.

"I wasn't that nervous when the manager told me that he bringing me on. But when I heard the reception I thought 'wow'.

"I loved every minute of it. It was a really special day."
