ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 25 April 2015
Villa lose for the first time in four in all competitions under Tim Sherwood as they are undone by a last minute winner at the Etihad to leave Villa 15th in the table but just two points above the relegation places.
After the euphoria of the FA Cup Semi Final comes the reality of life in the League with Villa. Tim Sherwood's Villa lose for the fifth time in nine Premier League games but had played Manchester United (3rd), Manchester City (4th) and Tottenham (7th) and had scored fourteen goals under Sherwood compared to just twelve in the previous twenty five under Lambert. Villa fall back to 16th and are just two places above third from bottom Sunderland who have a game in hand.
Tom Cleverley scores for the first time in a Villa shirt on his 32nd appearance in a to make it W11 D6 L15, 1 Goal, 0 Assists and 6 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Jack Grealish makes his 20th appearance for Villa (6 Starts) to make it W10 D4 L6, 0 Goals, 2 Assists, 2 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career but yet again he's lucky to be even selecvted after his latest off-field indiscretion.
Carlos Sรกnchez scores his 1st goal in a Villa shirt on his 30th appearance (23 Starts) to make it W9 D8 L13, 1 Goal, 1 Assist, 7 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.
Matt Lowton suffers his 40th defeat in a Villa shirt on his 81st appearance (73 Starts) to make it W24 D17 L40, 2 Goals, 5 Assists and 16 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
