Aston Villa 3-2 Wigan Athletic | Extended highlights

[@GreigStott]

As sad as I am to see him leave Scotland, I am delighted for John McGinn on such an all action debut and man of the match display for Aston Villa v Wigan. A terrific player who I am so excited to see do well at both club level and international level for the Scotland team in the coming years! All the best for the rest of the season 👊⚽️❤

[@imogenlawrie7101]

McGinn looks class

[@williamn01]

Imogen Lawrie he was everywhere energy ,tenacious in the tackle great crossing ability use have got a major steal with him glad he never went to Celtic coming from a rangers fan some player

[@charliecollie1498]

Yes he does

[@joshpobby7028]

This aged extremely well

[@JimmyDanger44]

McGinn's going to become a fan favourite sharpish

[@DonCHFC1875]

Jimmy Danger super john McGinn, looked immense from these highlights. Hope you guys can go up this year.

[@burtlangoustine1]

McGinniesta...i miss him so much 💚 HFC

[@JimmyDanger44]

Don C HFC 1875 made the championship team of the week on his debut, the kids special. Reminds me a lot of a young Stylian Petrov, oozes composure

[@JimmyDanger44]

burtlangoustine1 I think a lot of Villa fans have a soft spot for Hibbs now, absolute steal for 3 million! All the best in the league

[@burtlangoustine1]

Hibs make good players. We usually lose them to the Glasweigan cabal, just happy McGinniesta is at Villa where i'm so sure he'll be well looked after. Good to, good to be, GOOD TO BE A: HIBEE!

[@avfcofficial]

Sorry Villans, our highlights are provided by EFL Digital and unfortunately, on this occasion, there is not commentary. Hope to have it fixed for next time. 👍

[@smileyjohnhowell1083]

Good

[@andobreslin8735]

Prefer no commentary. Adds nothing to it anyway & I prefer hearing the roar of the crowd.

[@YoungGuns_SG]

Commentary is insignificant as long as we are able to maintain this unbeaten run. Well done lads. Up the Villians 👍🏼👍🏼 [Singapore fan]

[@whatryewatchin]

Nah commentary is better in my opinion, just not the borebag that usually does it.

[@marymcmahon8669]

Don’t mind the commentary, but can you please ask that fella to say Hourihane’s name properly?

[@sukhdev1989]

It's only one game but McGinn is looking like he could be a bargain, looking forward to see how he and grealish's link up play will improve as they train together more.

[@villatillidie1100]

UTV McGinn looks class

[@ronan8096]

Jack finally has someone on the same wavelength as him to play off of. We'll be hearing of the McGinn and Grealish partnership a lot I hope

[@Kyle-bk8gc]

Only 1 fault by Bruce yesterday. Having Jedi start CB over a proper, and fully fit CB. Other than that, it was a good team. Made it a lot harder then it needed to be but we got the result. #UTV

[@villenium]

McGinniesta

[@burtlangoustine1]

hahaha that's perfect i'm using that 😆😆😆

[@LP7-2024]

Was a great day out

[@ollieharrison1400]

Jedinak is not a CB!!! , put elphick CB

[@banchobanner4055]

Ollie Harrison You right.

[@deathtoallturkeys]

McGinn looking a great signing and Grealish showing he should be playing in the PL, looks head and shoulders above anyone else in terms of class and quality

[@jmc129]

McGinn looked excellent. We do look shaky at the back though and need an established striker. Relying too much on midfield and even defenders for goals

[@markcrawfy7790]

Super jack....

[@jacksparrow3504]

Come on VILLA.. This year is our's.. Premier again.. Come on my LOVE.. one supporter from Volos - GREECE😀😀👍👍

[@nicholasarcher2503]

Still much to work on but a great start to the season. What a debut for John McGinn, 2 or 3 more like him and we'll be alright.

[@chesterchan2005]

I think we are best team in this league.

[@burtlangoustine1]

His name is Marcelo Bielsa, Leeds United is his team. "El Loco" will be visiting soon with his white army. Hear them you will. His masterclass will surpass what you're used to.

[@dazham5429]

I swear i love this team

They never make it easy to be a villan! UTV! Great atmosphere up the Holte, may it continue.

[@healthylife6231]

John Mcginn only has one gear . Top gear !

Thank god we got the game winner

[@Koenentom]

Sometimes we need luck, 3 points! UTV

[@cyberdonblue4413]

...and by God have we had some luck so far UTV VTID

[@thomasfarmer6194]

UTV ❤️💙

[@Duane-d6o]

Great result - indifferent performance

[@neilu.k.1364]

Bruce needs to establish a centre back partnership quickly. We have too many centre backs to play a midfielder there. Tighten the defence whilst remaining attack minded we may have a chance. McGinn looks like a great find , need to do more like that and not over spend on average

[@broken1394]

Best midfield in the league.... Need a striker and work to be done at the back. We're missing Terry. It's fantastic to be on 6/6! Utv

[@GavMystro]

Topsy turvy day at VP. From the dispair of being 2-1 down and Kodjia missplacing every pass he made with the crowd going wild to winning in the 95th minute. Once again not a great performance overall but relatively clinical. Keeper had a horrible debut too, dropping crosses and their first goal... at leas Mginn workes his socks off and looked absolutely class

[@1968jase]

GavMystro can't blame keeper for the goal.....total shit back pass....sold the keeper well short

[@sebavfc1]

John McGinn... that is all.

[@kevinjones3887]

McGinn is just the tonic Villa needed, no pun intended. Anyone for a Gin & Tonic?

[@boscobalalaban9157]

Grealish and Mcginn gonna tear up this division.

[@Rodders0223]

Keep it up!

[@beltonbasher6125]

up the villa

[@bradfordquigley69]

good result, stop playing players out of position when no need to

[@bestitems1]

Wigan deserve a pont from that game even match.

[@sosiggobbler8261]

Unlucky Wigan. Well played villa

[@richmortobot970]

A win is a win I guess and attacking we looked good at times the worry is our defence 2 sloppy goals and Wigan had loads of chances to finish the game off early, but it’s early days let’s hope Bruce can keep the team gelling together not the most exciting tactics but 6 points so far keep it going lads.

[@richardlawes2697]

Early days but the fact villa can get the 3 points when they are not on top form says a lot. Reminds me of man Utd. A team under Ferguson that didn't always play at the top of their game, but got all three points. Defence needs sorting though.

[@carlbrinton4639]

Well done villa, keep up the momentum! VTID

[@aidanamann3861]

Get Jedinak off, play Elmo right back and put Tuanzebe centre back with chester

[@aaronw667]

Aidan TK you’d swear it was quantum physics or something. Bruce lost at least ten points last season playing that muppet at CB and yet here we are again almost losing another two. Fella doesn’t learn

[@aidanamann3861]

Aaron W Absolutely, and it's incredible since we've signed a great young centre back on loan to put some energy into the side and we play him at right back, we play Elmo right mid even though his defensive abilities far outweigh his attacking abilities and we sideline Albert. Bruce has some thinking to do

[@robloxpal1575]

Was this John McGinn's debut? If so, fab delivery from the free kick. P.S. John McGinn deserved man of the match.

[@trojansecurity7213]

Wow, Wigan missed a couple of sitters!

[@lennylaa1686]

Drop Kodj and replace with RHM or Green or maybe peace out with Mc Cormack and get him back in. Bout time he earnt his corn instead of winning the lotto every week! hahaha.

[@danielRDmorgan]

Both teams played well👍very close

[@joshewins8524]

I love the third kit

[@phillydavison]

Just keep winning baby. UTV!

[@burtlangoustine1]

S U P E R _JOHN MCGINN_ HIBEES HIBEES HIBEES !!!!!! 💚💚💚 Scotlands Best, Hibs Legend. What a pleasure it was watching him play 😰 i'm quite upset. Lets hope we see him do just as well for Villa and Scotland 👏👏👏👏

[@burtlangoustine1]

Yes mate, potential to be. Imagine a 5ft zidane...now call him McGinniesta. Good signing SB

[@beltonbasher6125]

grelish best player like if you agree

[@alexwest2003]

Grealish*

[@hiberniangreenandwhite8857]

SJM (super John McGinn ) for villa fans who don’t know that ha... he will be best player for villa this season. Boy is unreal. Old school all action midfielder...

[@milolow2982]

good to see the lads coming from behind but playing Jedinak at CB is madness

[@alan1946ku]

Missing Terry's experience at the back holding the line together and missed chances in front of goal......still 3 points, we'll take it!!!

[@thingdubious5351]

We had more opportunities then this. This video doesn’t justify it. Brilliant football match.

[@troygeorge840]

In love Chester !!!

[@troygeorge840]

Sorry l ment l love Chester!!!!

[@holtenderzinthesk1y496]

We’re back!!!!!!

[@Stuart2562]

Some sloppy defending from Villa, bad pass back. Great to see the wee man set up first goal and some good shots on target from SJM.

[@martingilmore5776]

They really need to do a better job on Hepburn-Murphy's number and name lol Great result and good to see us come back from 2-1 down. McGinn looks really good cant wait to see more of him. What sort of message has Bruce given to Tommy Elphick if Tommy was fully fit? dropped for a midfielder in his position.

[@brumav9779]

McGinn looks unreal

[@samirislam8043]

The defence is dodgy , never really saw Nyland make a save .

[@steviehdgamer3063]

we need to get a striker in dont think kodjia is up for it but i hope he proves me wrong another winger is ideal odegaard, bolasie, succes or snoddy would do and a left back is really needed, also i would like to see axel as a cb with chester.

[@OpenDoorEnglish]

Lucky three points but they all count! I don’t think Jedinak should play at CB again. Put De Laet at right back and have either Tuanzebe or Elphick with Chester. Or if it’s three CBs Tuanzebe, Chester and Elphick.

[@sportbros9257]

Almost at 50k

[@shmello5130]

Who have we signed McGin or mcginiesta

[@banchobanner4055]

Super Bjarnason Super Hourihane

[@LordKingPotato]

Get a CB Bruce!!

[@johnaston4959]

We really must quit with this backwards football, it almost cost us very dearly in this game, we also need to replace Jedinak, he gets to far forward and doesnt have the legs to get back for the counter. Love McGinn, he is going to be a great asset to us.

[@n0rt0nRS]

caralho olha esses lançamentos do McGinn, melhor contratação

[@mikecoolruler]

Good result, albeit a close one, but a great debut from McGinn, early days I know, but a great partnership looks in the making with Jack! Kodja looks very rusty, surely they can't play him like this? Jedi out of position and not sharp at all. Hoping to see some alternatives on Tuesday at Yeovil.

[@decckys]

A great result but need to be tighter at the back!

[@chrishill2103]

A good solid game against a Wigan team that will do good things, but Grealish is a Rolls Royce, designed and built in Birmingham. No hard feelings if he moves on. He's Lee Hendrie 6.0!

[@adamdann2734]

better without commentary

[@karmababy5077]

Very scrappy boys. Need to be much better at the back. Can we please keep Jedinak the hell out of the back line. UTV.

[@grimpox8820]

Like everyone else saying JEDINAK is not a CB!!!

[@jkl20kb]

Its muted or no one is singing?

[@mwolski9921]

Kamil Biały muted. It was pretty noisy from both home and away fans.

[@jkl20kb]

As I thought, Villa fans are pretty noisy from what I heard.

[@jackpendrey6668]

Only good decisions Steve can make are transfers, not convinced he’s positive enough for the players we have and where’s Elphick ffs.

[@glenspace007]

Not too bad going forward still a lot of problems at the back defence needs work now.

[@robloxpal1575]

Mike Yedínak's pass to Nyland was not needed at all. They where both poor in that game.

[@yassinemidad1690]

You'd never have guess there was over 30k in attendance.. very quiet

[@mwolski9921]

Yassine Midad it's muted. I was there and it was pretty noisy from both home and away sections

[@ajk2664]

Not sure if I like Kodja, needs to step up

[@sodthong]

Need a solid CB asap ...

[@MrDeerings]

what a shocking backpass ... sort it out!!!

[@jackmcglynn5039]

utv

[@jarkkokyntaja4073]

McGinn, what a player. And Jedi, oh dear, don´t play him as a CB, he is CDM. Hope that was the last time...

[@mattc.8887]

There is a place for conor and mcginn! Its a long season. UTV!!!

[@John_Adderley]

Jedinak can't defend to save his life... no communication at the back, before he gave the goal away he created confusion & nearly cost us a goal on two other occasions! He's too slow, I've never seen him successfully make a tackle & he ambles about aimlessly! We've got enough decent defenders at the club to have a proper back four, without having to play midfielders who are past their best there. Jack ran the show, McGinn looks to give the extra energy & work ethic that you don't get from a Jedinak & Whelan, just needs a few games to bed in & get used to playing with the lads. Kodjia... what can you say?! We have players now who can actually cross the ball in & he's never in the box. Looked like a headless chicken out there at times, unsure of what he's supposed to be doing! A McCormack type player would be ideal to play in this team... but we don't have one of them. Oh wait, we do!! 🤨 The football's been rubbish the last two games... far too static at times, no-one getting the box for crosses & the defence today was horrendous! Won't be long before our luck runs out, sort it out Bruce!

[@avfcofficial]

Tell us what you really think John, don’t hold back! 😉

[@stjani10]

"Jack ran the show, McGinn looks to give the extra energy & work ethic that you don't get from a Jedinak & Whelan, just needs a few games to bed in & get used to playing with the lads." I think your confused in McGinn position, he played in Hourihane's Position. It was BB that gave you the energy instead of Jedniak and Whelan. McGinn was excellent though, much more of a hard worker than Hourihane.

[@Alexis-wn6vj]

Stop stretching your videos to 10 mins

[@dannyedmonds6451]

McGinn you made the right choice were soooooooooooooo much better than Celtic

[@andobreslin8735]

The football is still very boring because Bruce is Manager. Just look at how amazing Leeds were yesterday. Set Piece Steve just can't cut it with modern football. I hope he gets us up this season, then we need a big name manager.

[@soad4verr]

This is how Bruce teams always plays. Works for championship football but Bruce's style has never made it in premier league

[@georgedolman444]

I'd love to have Bruce for at least a 10-15 years

[@mikecoolruler]

He's doing okay at the moment, but when we start dropping a points, there will be a change of manager without any doubt. The new owners won't let it slide.

[@ParadiddleAd7x]

That pass. Please. God. No. When I saw the team I thought... Nyland Elmo Chester tuanzebe Hutton Jedinak Grealish McGinn Bjarnason green Kodjia Please do not have a natural CB on the bench and put a CDM there.

[@VeryCoolJeep]

Aston Villa good job ahhaha

[@THEONLYDINGLE]

👊💪👊

[@brettskinner3571]

please leave kodja

[@elitehurst1395]

I commented below

[@hiberniangreenandwhite8857]

SJM (super John McGinn ) for villa fans who don’t know that ha... he will be best player for villa this season. Boy is unreal. Old school all action midfielder...
