Referee was an utter joke. How many more abysmal referees are we going to have before it gets better? Never seen more of a diving team than Villa. Lansbury was the worst culprit and the ref should have gotten a grip further. Quaner got fouled all game and Izzy got kicked (once again) from pillar to post. Real shame that Kasey isn't fit just to give his shins a rest. The lack of protection from refs for Izzy and Kach as well by the way is disgusting, fully agree with Snoots. Apart from one costly mistake, Jonny Hogg was a cut above. Different level. The championship Kante. Mooy looked very tired. I'd play big Phil with Hoggy against Brentford and give him a rest. He looks knackered. Defence was outstanding. Lowe and Smith best full-back pairing in the league for me. Hef outstanding and Schindler handled Kodja as well as he could as he looked every bit the £14m striker he is.

*almost costly mistake I should add, referring to when he tried to dance out of defence and Hourihane almost scored, who was invisible rest of the game.
