ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 3 September 2022
More refereeing ‘errors’. A euphemism if ever there was one. Credit to Gerrard for setting up the side to at least try and succeed.
Ezri Konsa makes his 100th start for the club (105th appearance), still aged just 24, to record W38 D20 L47, 6 Goals, 3 Assists, 15 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.
Jan Bednarek is handed his first squad appearance since joining on loan on 1 September.
Leon Bailey makes his 25th appearance for the club (11 Starts) to make it W7 D2 L16, 3 Goals, 3 Assists and 3 Bookings so far in his Villa career as the travails under Gerrard weigh heavily on the player.

🆘 | The normally reliable Hooper not only incorrectly called offside for Villa's winner but also in contravention of FA Directives blew his whistle to prevent a VAR review.
Very very suspect.
