Quote from: Dave P on December 13, 2020, 10:17:24 AMI just put in the Wolves post match thread that it’s so refreshing that being a man down away from home in a tight game doesn’t mean shutting up shop. We have reaped rewards overall with Dean’s tactics and bravery and long may it continue. If he continues this philosophy with better players year after year, then we could be on the cusp of something special. Yep. He could have easily thrown on a defensive midfielder when Doug went off, but he stuck with what he had and it paid off. A lot of credit due there.

Really happy with the way Dean Smith and the coaches have improved the team, every Villa player that I can think of has improved since he has been at the club, and we are now witnessing very good performances that two years ago were unthinkable.
