ON THIS DAY
Thursday, 17 December 2020
Despite a record breaking number of shots Villa end up goalless with Burnley and have no home win in four.
Centre back Kortney Hause makes his 40th appearance in a Villa shirt (36 Starts) since joining in January 2019 to make it W17 D7 L16, 2 Goals and 8 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Villa's 16 shots in the first half was the most by any side without scoring in the opening 45 minutes of a Premier League match since September 2019.
Villa's 27 shots was the most by any side without scoring in a single Premier League match since December 2018.
Anwar El Ghazi's eight shots without scoring is the most by a Villa player in a Premier League game since John Carew vs Reading in February 2008 in which he also had 8 shots and no goals.
Off the pitch Jack Grealish is in trouble again, banned from driving for 9 months and fined £82,499 for driving offences after a highly spirited lockdown busting party at Ross McCormack's flat in Solihull.
Former Villa manager Gérard Houllier dies aged 73, Houllier managed Villa for 7 months in 2010-11 which proved to be a torturous spell on and off the pitch.
