Sheffield United???

Did they have to buy a new team and then have 3 main players injured for 4 plus months but can't replace due to FFP, or have they had a settled team for 3 years when we had a manager loaning players instead?

Hause has been terrible this first half. Even when their player broke free from the halfway like and Reina came out to clear, it was Hause that was a couple of yards behind the rest of the back line and playing their player on-side. 

Konsa hasn't been much better and without doubt should have been the man marking Deeney. To be fair, even if he went up for the header with Deeney, I think he would have wanted it more and still scored. 

Up until that goal, I thought we looked quite good albeit without ever really looking like scoring. It's clear as day that we do not have a striker, someone to make clever runs and hold the ball up whilst bringing others into play. 

Nakamba has been the stand-out Villa player so far. He's been brilliant for that 45 minutes and even matched up against Capoue on a couple of occasions. 

He needs to get a grip of that defence otherwise they'll score more.

That result is fine. Rather that than Brighton pulling away no?

Yeah looking at the table that game doesn't really affect us, with our goal scoring threat our competition is Norwich....
