Jack started the run for his goal 10 yards inside his own half. Beat half their team and played 2 one twos on the way, to slotting it into the bottom corner.If that were Hazzard or Messi, or had taken place in the premier league the media would be in a frenzy about it.

Holy smokes.Elmo produced a similar pull-back early on for the Albert chance. Looks like something they've worked onIf you go on the Villa YouTube channel, there's some vids from Bodymoor. Some of the drills seem to try to replicate situations that might, or could be made to, happen in an actual game.Nothing we do now happens by chance. Watch Jack's movement after he plays the pass, it's clearly something that has been trained for us to look for crosses behind the retreating defence. This is the sort of detail that shows the difference between Smith and managers like Bruce. At the start of the season we were getting plenty of crosses into the box but they were percentage balls played into an area where the plan was to just keep throwing the ball in there and profit on the ones that don't get cleared now we're trying to game the numbers by playing balls into different areas, there were a couple of crosses like it on Saturday as well.

Grealish's goal, by the way. Holy smokes.
Loved Dean's comment about John McGinn. 'So good I thought there was two of him'. S omaybe we weren't down to 10 men
