Aston Villas Premier League season has been shocking and embarrassing, but relegation may give the club the restart it needs, says Jamie Redknapp. Villas 1-0 defeat at Swansea on Saturday Night Football was their 21st in 31 games this season, while Remi Garde has won just two Premier League games since taking over in November.They sit 12 points from safety with seven games remaining, and having finished in the bottom six of the Premier League for the past four seasons, Redknapp says relegation has been coming. Federico Fernandez (second right) scored Swanseas winner on Saturday Night Football Theyve won three games this year, Redknapp told Sky Sports. This is Aston Villa were talking about, European Cup winners. They shouldnt be in this position, but it is symptomatic of all their problems. They have been shocking this season, embarrassing.Theyve let the fans down. This is a marvelous club. For them not to be in the Premier League next year is criminal, but sometimes you need a wake-up call, sometimes you need something to happen, and this could be it.Next year theyll regroup, probably start the season as favourites, and this is a good big opportunity for the likes of Jack Grealish and Andre Green and other young players to get this club back where they should be. Swansea 1-0 Aston Villa Read our match report But this isnt just today, this is all season, they really have been so poor. This has been happening the last three or four years. Theres no real surprise, and theyve somehow got to change that flow.They were not strong enough defensively, apart from Gueye in midfield theyve been really poor, and theyve not scored enough goals.Villa gave Garde his first management job in English football after sacking Tim Sherwood in the autumn, but the Frenchman has failed to lift the Midlands club off the bottom of the Premier League.Redknapp was surprised Villa went for a manager with limited experience in charge of sides struggling at the bottom of the table, but believes the club would still be an attractive outfit for several top bosses in the future. Villa are currently 12 points from safety with seven games remaining The manager is the most important thing now, Redknapp said. I dont know what theyll do in the summer. When they appointed Remi Garde it was a strange appointment.There are managers that keep teams up as a specialised job. The likes of Sam Allardyce, Tony Pulis, people like that have done it year in, year out.Remi Garde will probably be better next year because he has an understanding of being at the top.But I tell you something, there will be plenty of people that want to manage Aston Villa. Plenty of people. Its a really good opportunity for someone to bring them up. Aston Villa manager Remi Garde was brought into the club in November after the sacking of Tim Sherwood I also hope Jack Grealish is watching this and thinking: Im going to show them the player I can be, because he has the ability to rip that league up.Some of the current players have the parachutes out, theyve been out of the plane for a long time.Speaking on Saturday Night Football, Sky Sports pundit Thierry Henry echoed Redknapps words, and says Federico Fernandes winning goal for Swansea, which came from unconvincing goalkeeping from Brad Guzan and other lax defending, summed up their season. Thierry Henry hopes that Aston Villa manager Garde will keep his job at Villa Park. Henry also believes Villa will find it tough finding a way back to the Premier League if they are relegated, and must be careful with their player recruitment in the summer.For me, this sums up the season, three mistakes in one set piece. It is not a due when you go down to the Championship that you are going to come back up straight away.Weve seen teams go down and said: Theyll be back, the likes of Leeds, Nottingham Forest. Villa is a great club, but sometimes you get what you deserve, and they deserve to go down.Theyll have to make sure Villa get guys that know the Championship, know how to get a team up.

The fourth-year guard from Carleton University kicked off his varsity career with rookie of the year honours in 2011, before racking up three straight Mike Moser Memorial Trophies for outstanding player. "Phil has been the guy we have gone through for four years and without him, there could never have been the success that we have had," said Ravens head coach Dave Smart. "He is an extremely talented player who is a full team guy over everything else." The 21-year-old from Richmond, B.C., was one of three Ravens to win national awards. His older brother Thomas, a fourth-year forward, was named the top defensive player in the CIS, while Smart added to his collection of Stuart W. Aberdeen Memorial Trophies, claiming his fourth consecutive coach of the year award and seventh overall. University of New Brunswick guard Javon Masters won the Dr. Peter Mullins Trophy as rookie of the year, while Saint Marys forward Harry Ezenibe won the Ken Shields Award for excellence in basketball, academics and community involvement. The awards were presented in advance of the CIS mens championship that opens Friday in Ottawa. Scrubb was the most consistent player on the top-ranked Ravens, leading Carleton in scoring (18.6 points a game) and assists (4.9). The six-foot-three guard was ranked third in the CIS in assist-to-turnover ratio, fifth in three-point shooting and eighth in free-throw percentage. Scrubb led Carleton to a perfect 22-0 in conference action for the third time in four years. The commerce student helped the Ravens to the CIS title in each of his first three seasons. He was the only active CIS player invited to Canadas senior national team camp last summer. Scrubb was a member of the national team for both the 2013 Summer Universiade and the 2011 Pan American Games. The other finalists for the Moser Trophy were Acadia forward Owen Klassen, McGill guard Vincent Dufort and Alberta forward Jordan Baker. Thomas Scrubb earned defensive MVP honours for the first time after claiming the conference defensive award for the second consecutive season. The six-foot-six forward was once again the anchor of a defensive unit that finished first in the OUA and second in the CIS for fewest points allowed (62.2 per game). The neuroscience student averaged 8.4 rebounds a game on the defensive end, and chipped in on offence with 13.2 points a night. "Tommy has been asked to cover the best player on the other team every game regardless of position for two years," said Smart. "He has deferred other offensive aspects of his game to do that. If not for him I have no idea how we would stop anyone. He doesnt defend one position, he defends four positions, very few can do that.&quoot; Acadia forward Owen Klassen, Concordia forward Zach Brisebois and Victoria guard Reiner Theil were the other finalists for defensive MVP.dddddddddddd Masters, a native of Kitchener, Ont., is the first UNB player to win the Dr. Peter Mullins Trophy. The six-foot guard claimed the national scoring title with 27.4 points a game, and topped the Atlantic conference in three-point shooting percentage (42.4). His 215 free throws made, the highest total in CIS this year, are a new season mark for the league. The 19-year-old helped the Varsity Reds finish with a .500 record (10-10) for the first time since 2003-04. "(Masters) has made a major impact on our program and will continue to do so as he progresses through his career at UNB," said coach Brent Baker. "Leading the country in scoring as a freshman is a rare and special accomplishment." McGill guard Dele Ogundokun, Brock forward Dani Elgadi and Alberta forward Mamadou Gueye were the other nominees. Smart now has seven CIS coach-of-the-year awards in only 15 seasons, three more than legendary coaches Ken Shields and Bruce Enns. His four consecutive national awards are also two more than any other coach in history. This season, he led the Ravens to an undefeated conference record for the third time in four years and the sixth time overall. He improved his all-time record in league play to 303-23 (.929), with nine of those losses coming in his first year as head coach. "Dave has done a remarkable job with our mens basketball program," said Carleton athletic director Jennifer Frenning. "Not only has he recruited and developed top student-athletes, he has instilled positive values and a strong work ethic which will make them successful well past graduation." The other finalists were Acadias Stephen Baur, McGills David DeAveiro and Victorias Craig Beaucamp. Ezenibe, a native of Nigeria, became the first Saint Marys student-athlete to win the Ken Shields Award. On the court, the six-foot-four forward averaged 9.0 points a game in his fifth season. In the classroom, the two-time academic all-Canadian is completing a double major in sociology and criminology and maintains a 3.6 grade point average. Ezenibe spends his free time volunteering with youth in the community and hopes to establish a project to help children in Nigeria. In November, he was invited by Toronto Raptors general manager Masai Ujiri to speak at the opening of the Giants of Africa foundation. "Harry is completely selfless," said Huskies head coach Jonah Taussig. "He is always looking out for the greater good whether it be with his teammates or the youth he works with in the community. He is always looking to make a positive difference in the lives of the people around him." Bishops Scott Ring, Carletons Kevin Churchill and Fraser Valleys Jasper Moedt were also nominated.
