Villa boss McLeish wants more goals from Dunne

Aston Villa boss Alex McLeish wants more goals from defender Richard Dunne.

The Irish stopper headed his first goal of the season to give Villa the lead for the second time only for Sunderland to hit back at the death.

For someone so strong in the air, Dunne should score more and Big Eck said: "It's all about delivery in those situations and it'd be nice to see him weighing in with a few goals from set pieces.

"The lads in the area are only as good as the delivery, it showed with the smallest guy on the pitch scoring for Sunderland.

"If you can get that type of delivery it just has to hit somebody and go in the net."
