Luke Young is considering playing through the pain barrier against Hull City on Monday.

Villa boss Martin O'Neill revealed the right-back is still struggling with the toe injury which forced him to withdraw from the England squad way back in February.

But MON admits Young may have to accept the discomfort between now and the end of the season.

He said: "Luke will try to train tomorrow. We will see how the injury is. He is still pretty sore but obviously he wants to get back playing again.

"He is considering playing through the pain barrier."
