Aston Villa suffered a fourth successive defeat in the Premier League after Dean Smith’s side loss 4-1 to West Ham. And an image from the match has summed up the mood from the club entirely.
John McGinn was snapped arguing with Ollie Watkins, with Kortney Hause, Tyrone Mings and Marvelous Nakamba also caught in an image that has since gone viral amongst Villa supporters.
The Birmingham-based club are on a terrible run of form in the league. With Smith’s job now under serious pressure following a poor stretch of results in the division.
Villa currently sit 15th in the Premier League, just three points off the relegation spots after this latest loss to West Ham. And things are starting to look bleak.
The Villa Park side were tipped at the start of the season as potential dark horses for European football. Yet now Smith’s side would now likely take another mid-table finish given their current crisis.
Indeed, the defeat to West Ham was brutal, and Villa fans on social media were not pleased of the image of the quintet arguing on the pitch during the loss.
