Smith insists Villa were 'not getting high' before Leeds loss

Aston Villa boss Dean Smith is confident his players have the character to bounce back from their humbling against Leeds. Villa have made their best start to a season since 1930 and last week at home against Leeds were chasing a piece of club history, having never won their opening five league games of a season. Maintaining their 100 per cent record would have also seen Smith’s side go top of the Premier League table for first time since October 2001.
