- Martinez showed why he’s worth £20m. A top class penalty save that kept Villa in charge of the game.
- Villa usually have one big defensive error per game. Having a quality goalkeeper can bail them out when that happens.
- What a ball by Mings, with his weaker foot, over the top to cause the red card. Watkins’ pace and strength did the rest.
- If there’s one thing Sheffield United know how to do, it’s defend.
- A patient approach was good to see, after watching Villa forget how to play football when up against 10 men last season.
- Some Elmo-esque crosses from Cash.
- McGinn was underwhelming.
- Tyrone Mings was Man of the Match.
- Kudos to Konsa for fighting through an injury to score the winner.
- It’s never pretty against 10 men, but three points is all that matters.
- Up The Villa.
The Villa Ramble
