Dean Smith hailed the team effort that produced a 3-0 victory against Fulham on Monday night.
Goals from Jack Grealish, Conor Hourihane and Tyrone Mings secured back-to-back wins to start the Premier League season for the first time since 1999.
And the Villa boss was happy with what he saw from his team at both ends of the pitch.
He said: “Football’s a tough game and you have to find that right balance between attacking and defending. At the moment, we seem to have that balance.
“We scored some great goals but maybe more pleasing for me is the will to keep the ball out of the back of the net.
“It’s about keeping that balance. If we can, it gives us a great chance to win football games.”
