A beautiful postcard that means so much and is full of emotion. It shows the unity, resilience, and quality of our Club. UTV!

The bravest boy I know. ​After losing his Mom suddenly before Xmas and recovering from heart surgery, my nephew is taking the pitch today as a mascot for his first ever game. Thank you @AVFCFoundation for this moment. I know his Mom is watching over him with pride. 💜💙 #AVFC

The late, great Dalian Atkinson. 💜💙 #AVFC

Some people leave more than a legacy… they leave a feeling, a standard, a way of looking out for others. 🩵 #rickyhatton #noonefightsalone

Remembering Dalian Atkinson, our former striker and League Cup winner, on what would have been his 58th birthday 💜

Dear fellow Villa fans, after a few days in not my best mood and mainly due to bad health I would like to share with you a simple message: we need you in this crucial week. Maybe we don’t deserve to ask nothing but we need each other. Time to reset and go ahead. We must carry on with criticism when we don’t do well. It’s natural. We take the responsibility. We’re not perfects. But our players and staff deserve the full respect and support. And we must be resilient to change the people’s mood trough facts. Difference between a drama club and a stable and strong club is that when results are not good (and it happens to everyone no matter who), instead to have people that choose to point and blame each other, instead to set fire to everyone and everything, we have people looking for the solutions and staying together. And we will be good, UTV!!! PD: this picture- very special - in the wall of my office gives me the motivation and an everyday reminder, it is the proof of what we are able to do. And what we play for. To fulfill VP with happiness and pride. See you on Thursday!

When results are not going your way, it’s natural to see things through a more negative lens. Many #AstonVilla fans right now are understandably frustrated. They see a flat team, with players lacking confidence, and results are not good. So an alternative, more positive,  perspective may not be the one they most want to hear. But here it goes The team, limited by the finances everyone knows about which cannot be forgotten, collapsed after their regular centre midfielders got injured. But McGuinn might return for the Lille game and Tielemas for the second leg or even before. And when they do, Morgan Rogers can stop doing everything as he is trying now, and focus, which will bring a much better Rogers, #AVFC best player.  I feel Unai Emery looks at difficulties as obstacles to beat, challenges. So his energy multiplies. He is convinced the solutions he has applied in the past, with their multiple variations, still work for this team. And so far, that way of working has worked for him at Villa Europe will be for this next round (and I am sure more rounds) a place of excitement and success.  That for the short and medium term.  And for the long term… It is clear this team has given a lot, some recycling might be needed. And if that happens, I am sure Olabe/Emery have identified players, half a dozen, perhaps even more, that can come within budget, with new energy, new traits that can help the structure. It is important to play in the Champions League next season to bring those of higher quality.  And with that, Unai will also renew his own energies and continue the adventure in Birmingham, which I am convinced is the best for him and for the club.  Can you look at the picture from a little bit of emotional distance and apply some logic? Not easy, I know, but you have enough reasons from past experiences to trust the process

Unai Emery's programme notes: "You, the fans, have the right to feel any feeling, but let me be clear: the dressing room is 100% committed, 100% hardworking and 100% sharing the feeling of sadness when we are not winning and the job when we are winning." #AVFC
