I think there was a follow up that showed that Alan Wiley covered more distance during the game than most of the players (that's not exactly it, but it was something to that effect).

Aston Villa 1-0 at Sunderland, 25'. I thought Villa might have been vulnerable to a let-down against Sunderland after beating Man U this weekend, but so far so good.
