'Talks some way down the line'. Whilst there is some panic on here today, the club has known about this for a while. 'Some way down the line' isn't a 'it's all happened in 24 hours' sort of scenario. #avfc

Well said, Stan.

Everyone at the England & Wales Cricket Board is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Dickie Bird. A proud Yorkshireman and a much-loved umpire, he will be sorely missed. Rest in peace, Dickie 🤍

It is always difficult in such moments to find the right words – especially as I am writing in English – but I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone. We have shared so many amazing moments over the past two years but above everything, I will take away the many new

Wow, what a scoop this is. What's your source, Gianluca Di Marzio? I'm guessing there isn't one and this is another one of those 'posts for clicks' posts #AVFC

🚨 Unai Emery, quite literally, laughed off speculation he might be about to walk out on Aston Villa. matt maher #avfc

That's a solid set of curtains #AVFC

I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really hope that we see some improvement tomorrow night. I'm excited to see us in Europe again, I hope we get a performance that matches it #avfc

Villa shouldn't be in the conversation for Europa League favoritism after the on and off pitch bumpy ride of late. We just need to win some matches, get key players into form and 10-15 games into this season be in better shape. Suggestion we're bookies favourites on last

Thing is, from a sporting point of view, unless all clubs in our situation do the same, we end up disadvantaged. It'll take UEFA or all clubs involved in playing Maccabi to take a united approach. And no matter the morality, which club would disadvantage itself? #avfc

Nearly got two tickets last night for me and the first born, but chickened out. Wish I'd got them now. Tickets are still available, but I'm a good hour away. Bit gutted. #avfc

My two pennies. Malen for Watkins is fair enough, although the last time this happened, Malen was poor. Elliott should have started for Rogers. I still maintain that Rogers needs some bench time. Where is Martinez? #avfc

Savage on comms 'we used to come away with 3 points'. Villa fans on here crying about it. Grow up, it was 20 years ago. #avfc

Rogers kicking fresh air ftw #avfc

This is the difference, for those asking why we look a different team tonight. Bologna are playing to our strengths massively by pressing us. PL teams aren't doing that #avfc

If the most optimistic account on here is saying it, then it's got to happen. He's been off it again though, let's be honest #avfc

Kamara is so, so good. The calmness he brought at the end there, breaking up play and being available for a pass. The penalty miss is irksome, wanted that to go in so badly for Ollie and that second half wasn't great. But, we won! We won an actual game of football! #avfc

Yes, Monchi!

I can only think that Elliott didn't come on tonight because he's getting the majority of the 90 on Sunday. That's the only scenario that makes sense in my head #avfc
