Aston Villa striker John Carew believes an unbreakable team spirit has been the key to the Villans' success this season.The 28-year-old Norway international said he has never experienced such a strong dressing room in all his career.

And he told the club's official website: "I've adapted successfully wherever I've been but this is the most competitive league. We depends a lot on team spirit at Villa.

"I have found it much better after being in teams that cruised to the league title.

"At Valencia and Lyon we were cruising through the first stage of the Champions League as well and sometimes that makes players drift off into their own little world. Not here.

"We have to be together 100%, all the way to get resilts, and when we play like that it's a fantastic experience."
