Kodjia's a lazy little git at times, but his finishes were pretty impressive today!

if only we hadn't fucked up twice this season we'd be up imo - the one win in 12 did it

Couldn't care less, Jane, as long as he's scoring.
His two goals today were great finishes.

Another clean sheet, another win.

Is it too much to ask for us to start and play like this in August.

If we can it's going to be a very good season I think.

Well done, another win and yet another clean sheet. Now Bruce has a team which he's pretty much put together were reaping the rewards. Keep this up til the end of the season and we will be ready to storm the league next season. Excellent.

I'm never going to get tired of seeing Villa win. Routine 2-0 be damned

Indeed just a bit frustrating we had such a bad start to 2017.

[Risso]

Happiness is being out all day with the kids, then checking the scores at 5pm to see a comfortable 2-0 win. Super stuff.

On the way home happy with the win and another clean sheet long may it continue.

Just got back in after being at the game.  Similar story to the last few weeks really, not a great performance but got the win and another clean sheet.  Thought the keeper and defence were very good today and Jedinak helped out defensively as well.  We looked off the pace in midfield though and Gardner was very poor when he came on. 

Despite the result, I was a little disappointed with Bruce today.  We started positively with a 4-4-2 formation, but soon as we scored he immediately switched to a 4-5-1.  We never really regained any momentum and Norwich were the better side in the second half, but got the win in the end.

You must be watching a different player to me. He had next to no support after Hogan went off. He worked his socks off in that lone role.

Errrr - that's what I said!

Yep, he was very isolated in the second half.  Adomah and Amavi were very deep at times.

It was forced though, due to Hogan's injury. A pragmatic decision that ended with a 2-0 win is hard to fault.

It's a concern, but we're developing good habits even if the performances aren't much cop.

We've started getting the second goal to kill sides off. The more we do that, the more it stops being an abstract awareness of maybe we can do it and becomes a feeling of certainty that we will.
