Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Reactions as Douglas Luiz mocked Andre Onana with shoulder shimmy while shaking his shoulders after scoring.
Responding admirably to defeat is something Unai Emery’s side has done well this season. In fact, every time Villa have lost a league game, they’ve gone on to win their following match, a fantastic indicator of their resilience and mindset under their Spanish coach.
The manner of their defeat, on home soil, to Chelsea in the FA Cup in midweek certainly raised some eyebrows but I expect them to bounce back from that on Sunday with another statement display in the league.
Despite what we witnessed at Villa Park on Wednesday, we have become accustomed to seeing a well drilled, organised side that are easy on the eye and work tirelessly to combat the strengths of their opposition.
Douglas Luiz has played a significant role in Aston Villa’s success over the course of this campaign and from talk about a possible exit not long ago, he is now the heartbeat of this side.
Remarkably, only John McGinn and Jack Grealish have created more for Villa in the Premier League since Luiz joined the club and despite feeling under the weather against Sheffield United, he played the first 45 and created four chances including an exquisite assist for Ollie Watkins.
