ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 22 September 2018
Villa lose for the second time in four to leave them with one win in seven as the increasingly erratic Steve Bruce lives on borrowed time.
Four days after saying “with all the nonsense that’s been written, I’m pleased. We’ve won a game, we are in the top six" Steve Bruce sees his Villa side defeated at home by Sheffield Wednesday and languishing in 13th place.
Once again Steve Bruce unhelpfully chooses to make it all about himself and showed no sign or inclination to address the core issues of his tactics and team selection.
John McGinn scored his first for Villa on his 8th appearance - a truly great Villa Park goal cementing his already legendary status with a strike for the ages on 53’.
Jack Grealish makes his 75th start in a Villa shirt (120 Appearances) to make it W42 D25 L53, 9 Goals, 14 Assists, 19 Bookings and 2 Red Cards so far in his Villa career.
Former Villa midfielder Barry Bannan lined up for Sheffield Wednesday.
