What they Said

Brighton & Hove Albion.png

*Villa boss Steve Bruce:*

โ€œIt was frustrating, disappointing and (Iโ€™m) thankful to take a point. Sam Johnstone earned his spurs.

โ€œI can readily understand the frustration of the fans as this was arguably the worst we have been since Iโ€™ve been here at Villa in the last nine months.

โ€œWe didnโ€™t have any spark, we didnโ€™t do enough with or without the ball. We looked jaded and I take responsibility for that. I should have known better after having 90% of the team away on international duty.โ€
---
*Brentford manager Dean Smith:*

โ€œIt was a good point but we should have collected three points.

โ€œWe controlled the football and in the second half created three big chances. Unfortunately Sam Johnstone, who I had (on loan) at Walsall, kept us at bay.

โ€œWe are an organised team despite losing three big players during the transfer window but I do not think we have diminished the quality of the squad.โ€

*Goalkeeper Sam Johnstone produced an excellent performance to earn Aston Villa a draw with Brentford.*

Villa struggled to fashion clear-cut chances and were fortunate to come away with a point against the Bees, who are still without a Championship win.

Johnstone twice kept out Ollie Watkins, while Nico Yennaris, Yoann Barbet and Neal Maupay also went close.

Substitute Scott Hogan had Villaโ€™s only shot on target, but it was well saved by Brentford goalkeeper Daniel Bentley.

Steve Bruceโ€™s side, who have won just one of their opening six league matches, were booed off the pitch at half-time by some fans inside Villa Park.

And they had Johnstone to thank for the point, with the former Manchester United keeperโ€™s best save a full-length dive to keep out Watkinsโ€™ drive.

Brentford looked good going forward, but could not find a way past Johnstone and have just three draws so far this season.
