PLAYER RATINGS VS FULHAM AS MCGINN AND TIELEMANS SHINE IN 3-1 WIN READ MORE: ASTON VILLA RECEIVE 'BEAT ANYONE' RESPONSE AFTER FULHAM WIN Raul Jimenez scored the only goal for
Silva's side, ending his goal-scoring drought for the first time since March 2022. Speaking post-match, Silva said: "The way we played in the second half, we showed our quality.
The first half, no. Some details I don’t like to call unlucky. Another own goal. Even the second goal, two players fight for the ball. They’re not normal things. "We need to be more
relaxed and calm. We have to express ourselves on the ball. The first half not enough, second half completely different but it was 2-0. We gave the ball away so easy for the third goal. The
reaction and commitment was there. We had chance to make it 3-2 and it would be different until the end. Article continues below "Frustrating afternoon for us, Villa deserve the three
points. You have to be consistent from the first minute. It is frustrating how we have conceded the goals today. It frustrated me how we played on the ball. First half we didn't exist
on the ball. We didn't change many things at half-time but told the players we had to express ourselves much better. Villa were much more aggressive than us. This is not a tactical
thing. It's my job to give confidence to the players." WHAT DID YOU MAKE OF SILVA'S VERDICT? TELL US IN THE COMMENTS SECTION SUBSCRIBE TO CLARET & BLUE Welcome to Claret
