"We weren't at our free-flowing best that's for sure. Sheffield United were better at their plan than we were tonight. "We didn't create enough chances and certainly need to improve if teams play like this against us again. "We're joint-top of the league at the moment. Yes we're disappointed not to go outright top but we need to put it into perspective. We've been on a superb run at home and it was bound to come to an end at some point. "It shows the mentality shift that this feels like a defeat. We wanted to win, even at the end we put the pressure on." "I think it's a wee bit harsh [the incorrectly VAR disallowed goal]. Goalkeepers are protected and I'm not sure what the rules are on phases of play. That's one for the referees. "Things go for you and against you. The last time we played Sheffield United here the goalie carried the ball over the line." John McGinn shows his class on and off the pitch as only a Villa boy can do. "Today was a very important match. We had to win, but I'm happy with my first goal in the Premier League, but I prefer three points. "When I come on the pitch, the team needed a goal. After I scored, it was a little bit better. "VAR is part of the game. Sometimes it is good, sometimes it is not good. Today we have to win the match not with VAR. "Villa Park is a difficult place to play. Sheffield is a good team and it was a good team. It was a hard match and we wanted three points." Nicolò Zaniolo. *I watched a good game, of course two teams trying to play. But it was not dramatic and with incident. "We have been on a run and we know things can change and today it did, but I am very happy with the players. I have to accept the draw and I am very, very happy. "Yes we deserved more than one point. We controlled the game in the first half like we were preparing. They were defending really well. But in 90 minutes we only lost control after VAR refused our goal. We were absent for the minutes afterwards and conceded." "It was not the correct decision but I always accept the VAR. "I think today VAR was too much. Not necessary to review as much as they reviewed. And for the goal it was a second action. We recovered the ball and then we score. It was not necessary to review this. "For me I accept VAR, but it's not necessary always. *I am very happy and very proud of the players. It was very difficult to keep our winning record. They defended really well. "We played well for the first 70 minutes and after they refused our goal we were upset and we lost control. They scored their goal and in the end we drew, it was fantastic to get a draw today. "I accept VAR always. But only today I think it was too much. It was not necessary to review two or three times in the first half. And the goal, it was not necessary. Normally we can accept this goal. "We are disappointed with the result today but we are accepting it. We have to focus for the next match against Manchester United, it will be incredible." Unai Emery, illustrates his class once again. "We work hard on the training pitch. We came here to win and we're disappointed." Cameron Archer drinks the Kool-Aid.
