Hutchinson - 8
Shone by far the brightest on the pitch. Had several scoring opportunities, including one that he created for himself and ended with a brilliant shot that hit the post.
Hall - 7
Comfortable in midfield today, was denied a good chance to score. Shifted to centre-back after some substitutes and was not a liability there either.
Webster - 6.5
Busy in midfield at the start of the game, albeit a bit too cautious. Shifted to the right in the second half.
Bettinelli - 6.5
Could do little when McGinn scored. After that, made several decent stops on Watkins and Ings.
Cucurella - 5.5
Was one responsible for McGinn when the Villa midfielder scored. Otherwise, an energetic performance, even though he was not really present in the final third.
Aubameyang - 5
Did not offer enough, especially after he was moved to the No.9 role following Broja's injury. Was subbed off in the second half.
The rest: Brooking - 6, Gilchrist - 6, Humphreys - 6, Jorginho - 6, Broja - n/a, Rankine - 6, Mothersille - 6, Casadei - 6, Elliott - 6, Burstow - n/a
