Granit Xhaka was short and to the point: our performance at Aston Villa just wasn’t good enough.
Our Switzerland international midfielder faced the media after our defeat on Tuesday night, and this is what he said:
on what went wrong…
I think it was Aston Villa, their fight, they put everything out in each half and in my opinion they deserved the three points.
on set pieces causing issues…
Yes, we have a gameplan and we know they are very strong on set pieces but we did too many fouls near our box, too many corners against them but we didn’t play our gamelan.
