Paul Lambert insists that Aston Villa deserved to beat Stoke City on Saturday afternoon.

Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert has said that his side "dominated" against Stoke City, doing everything but score on Saturday afternoon.

Villa could not break down a typically stubborn Stoke but Lambert insisted that his side made it a good game to watch.

"For 0-0 it was a decent spectacle," BBC Sport quotes Lambert as saying. "We played really well and had early dominance. I couldn't ask for any more other than a goal.

"We had a lot of ball and dominated the game possession-wise. The young lads at the back coped well with Stoke's physicality."

The points saw Villa slip to 16th in the Premier League table.
