A tough watch but an away win and a clean sheet.  Well done Villa.

Some good positives.

Kamara has come back well.
JJ is getting back to his best…..probably at 75% now.

It's partly about us not quitting but more importantly it's that we make teams cover a lot of ground defending and tire them down. Tired players make mistakes and we capitalise on it.

Pleased with that. Glad boro's boring tactics came to nothing.

A fortunate goal, but we were the better team overall.

It was reminding me of the Sheff Utd game especially in the first half, where we don't play quickly enough against a side who aren't going to be drawn into trying to win the ball high up.
