Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert insists there's been no bust-up with Matt Lowton.

Lambert insisted he has no issue with the 24-year-old and insisted leaving him out at Cardiff was purely a football decision.

"I just left him out. I just had to pick a team that I thought was right," he said.

"He's been fine. I don't want people writing I've fallen out with him, because that's nonsense. There's no such thing."
