Villa's achilles heel of possession without penetration hit again as West Ham score early and Villa cannot make their efforts count.
Joe Mercer’s Villa's lean spell continues as they make it five League games without scoring and four defeats to record nine wins, six draws and eleven defeats in twenty six Division One games this season.
