Terrible match really but i guess it's hard to play football on a pitch that bad.
Guzan 7 - Didn't have much to do, good penalty save
Warnock 5 - Absolutely dreadful, gives the ball away so cheaply
Dunne 6 - Stupid mistake at the end, other than that didn't have too much else to do
Collins 5 - Does nothing but hoof the ball, so frustrating
Hutton 6 - Looks half decent going forward but dreadful at the back, gives plays people into trouble with terrible passes as well
Ireland 7 - Lively, composed on the ball and tried to play football on the ground
Petrov 6 - Solid, nice assist. Too many backward passes for me though
Clark 7 - Solid, breaks play down and keeps it simple. Quality goal as well
Albrighton - 6 Bit of a one trick pony and his crosses were dire. Good goal and his work rate was excellent as usual.
Heskey 4 - Didn't even notice him do anything
Bent 5 - Little to no service but didn't get himself involved enough for me
Gabby 7 - Changed the game for me, lively, energetic, chased things down and put people under pressure. Good goal too
Gardner 6 - Seemed composed on the ball, kept it simple and nearly scored a beauty
Bannan Didn't really have enough time to do anything
Most entertaining part of the day for me was the banter amongst the standing and "sitting" Villa fans. Some really good chants and banter from both sides
Was also a novelty being sat in a curry house a 5 minute walk from my house half hour after full time rather than being stuck in traffic trying to get out of Aston
