Laursen's Big Decision


Martin Laursen has announced his retirement from international football.

The Danish star has decided the time is now right to concentrate on his career in claret and blue.

Laursen said: "The main reason behind the decision was the fact that I don't think it is physically possible for me to play international as well as domestic football.

"This was a very difficult decision. I love playing for my country but I just felt the time was right to focus on my career in England with Villa."

Martin O'Neill added: "It has undoubtedly been a difficult decision for Martin to make.

"He has loved playing for his country. But his club future has now become very important considering his history of knee problems."
