Read Aston VIlla’s Verdict
Villa are playing great football at the minute, but they really need to match their play with the ball alongside their play without it.
They’re inviting too much pressure at the back, and it’s costing them time and time again.
It’s fixable, yes, but Villa really need to get things sorted, as this is not the first time that this has happened.
