After a difficult start to the season, when the loss of Grealish was noticeably felt, Villa slipped into the relegation battle. After 5 defeats in a row, those in charge had seen enough and pulled the ripcord. But with Steven Gerrard, the fire is back in Birmingham. 3 wins from four games so far under their new head coach.

Return to basics

Since Gerrard has been on the Villans’ sidelines, it is evident that Aston Villa are adopting a new approach to the game. At Villa Park, the team is getting back to basics. They defend as a team and switch to a 4-3-3 system after winning the ball. This is also reflected in the results under Gerrard so far. In four games, no more than 3 goals were scored. Aston Villa won once 2:0, twice 2:1 and once lost 1:2. Most recently, Villa won 2-1 against Leicester City.
