Jadon Sancho
After playing a largely irrelevant role in Villa’s start to the season, Sancho has been a much bigger factor in their success since Christmas.
The Villans recorded a late 1-0 win over Brighton and Hove Albion to widen the gap between themselves and Manchester United in the table to five points.
He played 60 minutes in the match and finished it three key cards while he was on the field.
The winger also had one shot on target, but it was blocked by the Brighton defense.
He won 100% of his aerial duels, but could not come out on top in any of his three ground duels during the match.
Sancho will next play against Newcastle United in the FA Cup on Saturday evening.
