Dean Smith: We’ve just thrown three points away
Aston villa boss talks about last night defeat against Burnley.
Last night, in a match where
Aston villagot ahead with a one-goal lead twice, they finally lost 3-2 to
Burnley.
Aston villa boss,
Dean Smith
believes they could finish the job in the first half if they used their opportunities.
“The word I would use is disbelief. We should have been at least three goals up at half-time and it would have been game over.”
Smith said.
“I just said to the players, ‘it’s a difficult league to win in’, but we’ve just thrown three points away with really poor defending and basic errors, really.
“We’ve had lapses of concentration where we haven’t defended hopeful balls and you’ve got to go and do that, you’ve got to work hard to win games in this league.
“We spoke about it before that’s one of the main ways they’re going to try to score goals: from a cross or a header or a set-piece. They showed more desire. We’ve gifted three points away there.
“I’ve got no complaints about the performances this season, you don’t win nine in 18 games if you haven’t got a ruthless streak, so we’ve certainly got that.
“But with the quality that we’ve got, we should have been more than a goal up in the first half. With the quality we’ve got at the back, we should be defending set-pieces and crosses better than we did.”
