With more talent still -at the age of 40 and at half pace- in his big toe than all the A-League's fifth rate hacks put together.

By all means boo him during the game but not after it, when it may be his last in the A-League. Any real soccer fan should be eternally grateful he decided to grace our two-bit, fifth rate poo truck of a comp. with his presence and help raise it's profile. Even the inbreds over in Adelaide were gracious enough to realise that and acted accordingly by paying tribute before & after Sydney's last game there.

I'm not one that booed him. I'll call him a cheating prick during the game.  :whistle 

How much did he really raise the profile of the league? Are crowds or viewers up? (genuine question I actually don't know the answer)

TV ratings are up substantially this season from what ive heard, although thats more to do with the brand than just ADP. I think sydneys crowds have been up since he come though. Pretty sure there was a spike in away game crowds involving sydney last season(dont know abt this season) I know he gave heart their biggest gate outside of a derby last season when he came to town about 14k  ;D

A-League was also shown in Italy with all Sydney FC games broadcast live over there due to Del Piero.

DAVID Villa is coming to the A-League.

Spain’s all-time leading goalscorer will play 10 games during a guest stint for the club that is now officially known as Melbourne City in an incredible coup for Australian football.

Melbourne City, formerly known as Melbourne Heart, announced its much-anticipated name change on Thursday morning.

And the Manchester City-owned club has made its first huge splash in the market by luring Villa to town on loan from sister club New York City FC.

Villa said he was excited about the prospect of playing club football in Australia.

“It’s very good for me in every sense,” Villa said. “From a football point of view it’s the opportunity to play in a new league in a different country, and of course it will be ideal for me to get some competitive football in the period before the MLS season gets under way.
