Ooh! Good shot from Weimann, good save from Vorm.

We're not doing badly.

We do look a bit short on quality. But good to see this sort of vibrancy in a villa side again

We need Ireland and kea to step up though. Both well under par so far.

Good football that though! Unlucky Weimann!

I've not seen Benteke play at all, but if he is capable of holding up the ball with his back to goal, then I can see how he would fit into our team very well right now.

Positives:  Decent pressing.  Emphasis  on passing.  Good atmosphere. 
Negatives:  Occasionally sloppy passing.  Needless bookings.

We really have to cut out the sloppy passing. It's going to hurt us

It's nice to see centre backs with composure on the ball.  Makes a big difference when Vlaar can have it at his feet on the halfway line and assess his options.  Ditto Clark.

Pretty decent overall, need to watch the sloppiness and Holman needs to pay attention to his passing.
