Happy Birthday to the boss. 54 today, and not a grey hair in sight (even after 3 years of managing Villa).

Pretty great going apart from the average goal difference.

More impressive when you consider the budgets those teams have.

At least it’s the plus category. After the years of Lambert and co I’ll take this.

Sure, it just reads odd that we've won 58, over twice as many as we've lost but goal difference is closer to the number of games lost.

The 5s at Palace and Newcastle and a couple of 4s to Spurs haven't been replicated much by us administering many trashing of our own. 5 at Sheff Utd the main one, from memory.

Yanited seem spawny with theirs with only a +4.

Anyway, a minor quibble. Happy Birthday to the Don himself.

The 6-1 Vs your home town springs to mind.

But yes, we are too prone to sloppily concede a lye consolation as per Burnley this season to smash the goal difference.

Hope the boss has had a great day.

He treated himself to the analysis of a couple of extra MTA and Bournemouth games.
