The way Emi Martinez has said he could have taken the easy option and simply moved to a UCL club but didn’t want to because he wanted to play Champions League with Villa… well here we are, you big beautiful man 🥲
Me and Alex are thrilled to bits to let you know that baby Georgia arrived last night, 11/12/23. We’re all doing fine and she’s perfect 🥰 UTV
(Of course, ted was removed straight after the photo!)
I am so proud to be an Aston Villa supporter. We have been there through thick and thin, and we’ve stood by our players and defended and championed them to the hilt. And last night, Oliver George Arthur Watkins scored a last minute winner to get England into the Final. I’m
In 100 matches, Dean Smith took us from 13th in the championship, got us promoted, took us to a cup final, survived our first season back in the PL and now we’re 5th on Boxing Day.
Underrated. Modest. Exciting.

Tyrone Mings was the last player off the pitch again. Man’s a leader and not scared of responsibility and taking ownership. I’m so proud he plays for us.
This is a national scandal really.
The most creative English player I’ve seen in my lifetime, who captained Villa & played out of his skin every game, wasn’t ‘good enough’ for Southgate’s England until he sat on the bench all season at City & is now suitably boring, apparently.
It’s being reported Villa fans will ‘give their blessing’ if he goes.
For the avoidance of doubt - no ✋🏻- It’s like letting my fella leave me for a richer bird and cheering him on while he’s in bed with her. Not a chance. 😅
Good Morning 🌅
Just a reminder that Arsenal sacked Unai Emery after 18m of failing to back him and not giving him enough time. Last night he did the double over them with Aston Villa Football Club.
We are so lucky to have Mister.
Up The Villa!
We have a 26 man squad but all the talk is about Jack Grealish. Every pundit, every channel: obsessed.
Remember when they used to call us deluded? Remember when they laughed at us? They called him a diver and now they’re cheering his name. We told them they would. 😌
Hi
If you bring up the goal line technology fault that happened in the 40’ of the 28th game of the 19/20 season every single time there is a controversial decision against Aston Villa then you’re getting juggling balls for Xmas ya clowns 🤡
When Purslow said he had broken down all the attributes of Jack Grealish and found them in 3 players - Danny Ing, Emi Buendia and Leon Bailey - now we all know which attribute Leon Bailey is
@AVFCOfficial
Good. Argentina won the Copa America and I can’t blame them for going to continue the momentum. We have to support them in their personal dream at national level - they will be real World Cup contenders. If we hold them back, we will pay for it in the end.
Today was my last game before baby comes 🥹
Looking forward to pictures in a couple of years with Baby Villan stood next to me and their dad on these steps 💜💙
Tyrone Mings, last player off the park again. Came to clap the fans as did the rest of the squad. I love that man to the moon and back. Where was the manager?
Anthony Gordon is NOT comparable with Jack Grealish leaving Villa.
We never chased JG down the street demanding answers after a defeat.
JG never refused to train or went AWOL to City.
AG has never seen his team go down, and captained them back up to the premier league.
From the moment we saw him back in Bournemouth still in his Villa kit from the night before, we knew he was staying for good 🥹 Everyday in between, Villa Twitter was literally just ‘Sign Mings’ x100,000 😅
Can’t imagine an Aston Villa without Tyrone Mings. What a man 🫶
Unpopular Opinion but the home crowd is toxic and puts unrealistic expectations on our players. Unai has committed to us, shame the home atmosphere can’t hold up their end of the deal.
Not buying this TalkShite from Darren Ambrose saying the players let Gerrard down. No. The fact that Gerrard’s backroom have gone too, and with a new system under Danks playing players IN THEIR ACTUAL POSITION is why we won 4-0 today. He was a awful tactically inept man-manager.
Correction:
Tammy rejects Wolves move because he wants to play for a big club, gets the Championship golden boot and fires us into the Playoff final and becomes a Villa (loanee) legend.
Sept: Scores a hat trick past them, propelling Villa above Wolves. Top shithousery!
BREAKING: Wolves are close agreeing a deal with Chelsea to take Tammy Abraham on loan for the remainder of the season.
Getting a decent English striker in whilst also potentially derailing Aston Villa's season...
Top shit-housery from Wolves! 😂😂😂
Hi 👋 we’ve played and won 3 games in 8 days, including an away fixture in Europe, with a threadbare squad riddled with injuries, but we don’t moan about it.
Unai Emery never makes excuses!
Pep Guardiola was not happy that Manchester City had to play the FA Cup semi-final on Saturday after facing Real Madrid on Wednesday.

Tyrone Mings has got 14 clean sheets in 17 games for England, zero errors leading to goals & scored twice for England
Yet twitter insists he’s a liability every time he’s picked
Our Captain 🦁
There are only five categories that men fall into when in suits:
1) Look like you’re going to a wedding
2) Look like you’re going to a funeral
3) Look like you’re going to a job interview
4) Look like you’re going to court.
5) Moussa Diaby 🔥
As much as they’re our biggest rivals, I don’t want to see any sanctions against Birmingham City until Man City’s 100+ charges have been sanctioned first. One rule for the ‘Top Six’ and I’m sick of it.
Birmingham City have been charged by the EFL with alleged breaches of regulations. Multiple charges of misconduct relating to the failed takeover bid last year, with "the club and a number of other individuals" facing sanctions. Charges to be referred to an independent commission
So Baston might have been 4th choice at Swansea, but I also remember a recent signing who was also a 4th choice but is an absolute brick wall, now plays for England and is a Villa legend...
I’ll leave you with that thought.
It is yeah. It’s local engagement with the immediate area. Every week, we cause mass distribution to the area in terms of crowds, traffic and parking - it’s a lot for the residents to put up with. This is a really thoughtful and meaningful gesture because we are all Villa.
favourite part of today when the atmosphere was absolutely bouncing, I look over to Traore warming up - he literally stops in his tracks & looks around at VP in awe. His jaw was on the floor & it filled me with so much joy & happiness for him to finally experience it. 🥰
It’s easy for us to take him for granted, but each game now there are Argentinians in the Lower North who have flown thousands of miles just to catch a glimpse of the keeper that brought them their World Cup home. Makes me feel really proud. UTV! 🇦🇷
Most clean sheets in first 100
@PremierLeague
appearances for Aston Villa:
🇦🇺 Mark Bosnich (33)
🇺🇸 Brad Friedel (33)
@EmiMartinezz1
has now kept 33 in 99 PL appearances for the club. 🇦🇷
One more to break the record. 👊
Two things made my day today:
@youngy18
winding up Zaha when warming up by the corner flag by throwing the ball over his head haha
@emimartinezz1
coming over to see the two blokes from Argentina - they were so happy, they literally broke down in tears and it was beautiful 🥹
If Carlsberg did Sundays, it would look like today. I’ve seen so many good friends, we’ve bagged another 3 points, we’re 5th, we’ve beaten the West Ham curse, and Dean Smith came home. I’m so happy. Have a lovely evening all 🥹 UTV! 💜💙
Tears in my eyes 🥹 MY SCARF HAS RETURNED from its epic trip to Germany and it’s picked up a souvenir 🥲
I’ve got a new mate in Stuttgart x
#VfBStuttgart
Not a single female in this fanbase is going to tolerate this. Not a single decent father, brother, partner would either. Disgusting to even contemplate it. It won’t happen, and if it did, I’d give up my season ticket.
Jamie Carragher is proper doing my head in with his commentary tonight - literally every incident is never for Villa. I know we sacked his bezzie but seriously la
I have some colleagues that support Boro and Luton. I often joke ‘Don’t fall in love with a loan player’ but I know it’s not that simple.
Tell me of a loan player you fell in love with 💔
I’ll start: Robert Snodgrass
I’m beyond gutted it came to this. I never wanted this for Smith. However, I want to thank him for all he has done for this club. Now his tenure has reached the limit of his abilities but he gave us our Villa back. He made us believe again. End of an era. 😢
At 75’ the Brighton lot were singing ‘where’s your famous atmosphere?’ and I was losing the will to live. It was just nerves mate. Because when Ollie hit the back of the net you could feel the spirits of 40k people go ballistic and THAT’S the Villa Park I know and remember 💜💙
None of these were born millionaires. They grew up in households like the rest of us and worked hard at their trade.
But you have no issue in having the average born-into-money cabinet minister telling you what to believe?…
Today is the last time I get to use my season ticket this season.
I doubt I can renew due to the very obvious reason of starting a family.
Most likely closing a chapter on my life today, for several years at least, until my daughter is old enough to attend men’s football. 🥲
Well done on winning the Conference - you’re right, we couldn’t do it.
But you forfeited your league form & finished 14th by throwing everything at the cup. Yes, we fell at the semi finals, but not only have we maintained our league form, but we are finishing 4th. It’s massive.
Big celebrations from a bunch of lads who were knocked out as favourites of a European cup last week and will play the minimum amount of games in the Champions League next season
As a Villa supporter I can’t describe the pride I’m feeling that our keeper is getting the global plaudits that we have known he deserves ever since Dean Smith plucked him from obscurity at Arsenal and gave him the chance to shine. I love him. I never want him to leave. 🥹
#UTV
Took us from 13th to promoted in the space of 6 months ✅
Survived our first PL season back ✅
Finished 6 places higher last season ✅
Developed a £100m player (forgot his name) and continues to get the best out the first team ✅
VIVA DEAN SMITH 💜💙
