GLENN Whelan says he holds no grudges with Aston Villa over the club's decision to release him just days after promotion to the Premier League was secured. We will see what happens after these two games with Ireland as my focus is on those two matches. I won't hang around like a bad smell but as long as I can contribute I will play a role. "It wasn't a surprise to get released, the stage I am at in my career and where Aston Villa want to go so I am proud of what I have done.
