Brentford 0-1 Aston Villa - the fans' verdict published at 11:28 10 March


We asked for your views on Brentford's Premier League match against Aston Villa.
Here are some of your comments:
Brentford fans
George: Frustrating - a very even match where we had plenty of chances in their box but couldn't turn it into the net. Disasi flung himself well in front of the best of those chances and their keeper was outstanding. While we fought to the dying seconds, they ran the clock down well and we lacked the two things that any Premier League team sorely needs when trailing - decisive substitutions and a generous helping of luck.
Iain: Brentford played well against a well organised Villa defence. Just two points - one, when will Brentford take a shot instead of walking the ball in? And two - when will the quality of refereeing improve in this country?
Paul: I think the referee was weak, but saying that we need to fall behind to start playing and it shouldn't be like that at home. Don't understand Thomas Frank's substitutions. What's the point of bringing on a centre half with minutes to go when there's a B team forward on the bench?
Villa fans
Paul: Question marks were raised over Unai's team selection, but he got it absolutely spot on when you now consider the fresh legs we'll have for the visit of Club Brugge. At the business end of the season it feels like we're finally coming good. Disasi in particular was immense.
Jason: More gritty performances like this would be handy; you don't get points for style. Disasi was a beast.
Andrew: Proud of the Villa team. Every player put a shift in and I was worried at the start with Olsen in goal but we were excellent in the first half without scoring and a very close VAR decision ruled out Rogers' goal.
