"Doing the prep for this game, I looked at the fixtures and thought 'The next five are winnable games'," Hendrie said on Sky Sports. "Listen, I think Villa will be really good this season and those next fixtures look appetising for sure. They have to bounce back after today, but there were lots of positives.

"I’m a little bit worried that the onus is on Leon Bailey in those wide areas.

"(Moussa) Diaby left the football club and I feel like he needs another option. Sometimes I think the balance isn’t quite there. Whether it’s a Raheem Sterling, we’ll never know."
