Very good first half, with the exception of the 1 cock up that almost gifted Villa the lead. Dominated the half, showed intent going forwards and were unfortunate not to be more up as I felt Murphy should've done a lot better with his chances.
Thought the Field for Kanu sub at half time was a poor decision, as it invited Villa onto us when we had them on the ropes. We looked completely toothless from then on in any attacking sense, but saw the game out, so it's difficult to complain.
A fantastic result and a 2nd clean sheet on the road in derby games can't be sniffed at.
I do feel that Montero for Kanu at half time would've made more sense, as Villa really struggled with us in the first half. We didn't really give them anything to think about second half, but fortunately they lacked any creative spark.
Several good performances today with Dawson probably my man of the match.
