Fans on X react to Villa’s Europa League semi-final defeat at Nottingham Forest

Mcginn has been poor has to be said.

All the possession then Bogarde with a donkey touch. No shot nothing at all

Bottle jobs #AVFC

John McGinn coming off, that’s a great idea – you know, him being the captain and all.

Please stop persisting with Buendia.

Would take this result after 90 though #AVFC

Buendia isn’t good enough
Bogarde certainly isn’t good enough
Rodger’s can’t play off the right.
Tiki-taka back four football is frustratingly bad.
Need a LB or Maatsen to step up
Need a RB so we won’t be targeted there constantly on crosses

Sorry to say but Forest deserve to win this game, we are so so blunt in final 3rd its untrue. #avfc

Digne – moronic
Buendia – dreadful
Attack – blunt and wasteful

Players in danger of being remembered as a group that just didn’t have the stomach to get over the line

Thursday is HUGE for the legacies of about 40% of this squad

How do you want to be remembered lads?#AVFC
