The Villa Blog

What a time to be an Aston Villa fan.

Two from the final in the top 10. #AVFC

Get in Morgan. #avfc

Flight was at 4.30am. Got to airport at 3.50. Just made it. On way to Copenhagen. Plane isn’t full of #avfc but probably 15%. Is it ok to start singing at 5.30 in the morning?

If this Aston Villa team wasn’t restricted by PSR, they would be consistently challenging for the Premier League title & be a regular in the latter stages of the Champions League PSR restricts their spending & squad depth which hinders their progress, which PSR is designed to do

UP THE VILLA. 👑

And still, Unai Emery is not on the list to win manager of the season. In any other world, it would just be given to him. But in this one we all know it will go to the manager that bought the league ... finally. #AVFC

Here we go let’s do this #utv #avfc @EuropaLeague

44 YEARS IN THE MAKING. 🏆

The Europa League winning Villa 💜

@B6Nigel I’m in that picture

Happy with my view 💜👍🏻 #AVFC #UTV

The closer you get to the stadium, the prices go up. I’m paying 400try now, an hour ago, 300, earlier today 200. The Turks are milking this proper. But it’s all good. #upthevilla

Huge police and I guess military presence in Taksim square tonight. I mean huge in the sense, hundreds. #avfc

I don’t live in the UK anymore but coming here has felt like home. I’ve lost the person I came with, met loads of #avfc fans, one or two from the blog. It’s been amazing. But we need to win tonight. It’s what it’s all about. Nervous now. #upthevilla

This post from a Turkish page 🇹🇷 and some comments 🤣 I don’t think they like the Germans much 👀 #AVFC

💷 "That financial hit is so hard to recover from!" 🏆 "Fighting for maybe even the Premier League title!" Brad Friedel believes Aston Villa can challenge for the Premier League title!

Many more Freiburg fans in Istanbul today and looks like they’ve all been told to wear white. A nervous but confident tension in the air. #avfc

@avfcbreaking time for a few, a little nap and then head out again

Escape open in Tanskim now and serving alcohol for fans who want an early start. #AVFC
