There is a problem handling pressure at Aston Villa at the moment. When the players walk out to the pitch the pressure is on because everyone wants to beat us.

Forest acted like they'd won the European cup on Sunday and it's like it with every team Villa face. Even in the pubs watching the game " if it's an away game" our fans feel it.

At the pub I was in grown men were dancing and kissing when Forest scored the winner. Other Midlands football fans hate Aston Villa with a passion born from jealousy and it's truly laughable to see.

We need to pull together on and off the pitch with a volley of confidence that will reverberate around the country never mind he Midlands.

Steve Bruce you need a passionate Villa man in the dressing room to give the players an injection of, 'Villa til I die!'.

Devlin, Bruce is supposed to have two passionate players in Gabby and Grealish, its not working. You use the word jealousy, surely you mean envious (Envy is a reaction to lacking something) I hate the word jealousy its poisonous mate.

Surely Newcastle also have the same pressure, everybody wants to beat them as well, other midlands side hate us off coarse they do that’s called rivalry, you hate Birmingham don’t you.

Let's be honest a lot of football fans dislike us because we are always moaning, some villans think we have some sort of divine right to be at the top.
Did we not have pressure in 80/ 81, yes we did it comes with success, but we handled it and handled it well.
If players think they are under pressure, don’t sign for Villa.

Lol thanx mate, I love the Villa and sometimes I am too passionate but its because I care. We are losing a lot lately and I believe we should be doing much better. The thing that's gets to me is we have no style of play under Bruce nobody knows how we want to play not even bruce. Next few games are easy so let's hope we can get some points on the board. UTV.

Walkthewalk, i'm probably wrong but i think bruce didn't have a favourite system because we didn't have the players for the system he wanted to play, now i think he has the players we may be pleasantly surprised, he'll need a few games for the players to click but i think good things may be round the corner, keep the faith guvnor, you'll be naming your next kid after him! lol!

Haha I hope your right mate we all just want our team to win. I think we have 1 hell of a team a good chairman so now its up2 the manager to make it win. I prob take it far to serious but it ruins my week when we lose! I really like the Huddersfield manager style his a man with a plan hopfully Bruce gives us somethink we can be proud of but i think his to old fashioned hope Iam wrong!

Think the team we saw Saturday should stick, maybe swapping the Icelandic for Taylor or Amavi.

Way off the mark Villa dave
jelousy is a poisonous word indeed and so we're the reactions I saw to Villa going behind " bear in mind I see it all the time" so I don't quite get your little point there! Other midland fans hate Aston Villa because we are the biggest most historic football cl.

I certainly do not hate Birmingham by the way and would never jump for joy when they lose. Next Dave?
