Villa stepped it up a bit after the break, with heskey bannon and bent combining sharply for the goal. First half was toss. Bit more urgency 2nd half.
Nice to hear dion commentating (co) said some nice things about us
I thought the first half, bar the last ten mins, was pretty good stuff to be honest.
Agreed, it's been a very good workout for the team, and there is plenty of promising aspects to take from it. For me, the most pressing thing is that Makoun is a very good player, but in no way a defensive midfielder. And we really need one, in my opinion.
