A number of Aston Villa fans have shared their reactions on social media following the 2-1 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Sunday.
Dean Smith’s side fell to their third league defeat on the bounce at Molineux despite Trezeguet’s late attempts to rally his side with a 90th minute consolation, after goals from Ruben Neves and Raul Jimenez gave the home side a 2-0 lead.
And following the result, these Villa fans have reacted with mixed emotions with some voicing their frustration with the performance, while others are attempting to remain optimistic.

READ ASTON VILLA VERDICT
Dean Smith’s men were certainly not at their best against Wolves, and the absence of Jack Grealish was evident throughout.
Villa were unlucky to lose both Matt Targett and Jed Steer early on however, while two of the last three defeat’s have come against Manchester City and Liverpool respectively.
Therefore it is not all doom and gloom, but Smith will no doubt be keen to recover against Newcastle after the international break.
