3-1 home win against the Gillet boys.

 

[Ginola14]

Well, that's the "1". Bet Sherwood throws his gillet off with delight!

Spurs really do have an average defence don't they?

1-0 Benteke.

And that's being kind!

 

[G-Dragon]

I can see Benteke causing us trouble in the FA CUP semifinal.

 

[Master D]

Tactics Tim.

 

[Pyeman]

It's not their defence I'd be worried about, it's their ability to score. Two games against relegation contenders that have yielded 0 goals.

Great result for Villa, Benteke on a great run of form at moment !

St. Totteringham feeling very generous this year.

 

[Saddlerrad]

Villa were well worthy of that, could have been 2 or 3.

Credit to Sherwood where it's due... He knows how to get his strikers firing again!

Exactly right, I have to put my hands up and say I was wrong about Lambert. Happy to say Tim is proving me wrong!

 

[Ginola14]

Really don't know why I felt so confident!

I was wrong originally on Lambert, I like everyone else wanted him in, however he really should have been sacked after his first year, I continued to back him, but after that second season, he really needed to go. But he didn't. I also didn't want Sherwood and thought he was the wrong appointment. Of course, the jury is still out, but we're looking very good so far.

I think the diamond midfield has really helped Aston Villa, it's probably the best formation for making use of Cleverly's and Delph's energy whilst putting enough support up front for Benteke. He was far to isolated under much of Lambert's reign.

Also Grealish is looking tidy and it's good show of faith from Sherwood to play him there.

I still think the defence needs sorting, as it was horribly exposed by QPR and Sanchez, while an okay destroyer is really poor on the ball.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

He is rubbish on the ball, but he does his job well, our other option is Westwood who isn't anywhere near as good at breaking up play, but is very good with the ball.
