Aston Villa senior player says he feels the pain of supporters

The protest, in recognition of Villa’s formation in 1874, was more severe than expected and came shortly after Lukaku had added Everton’s third, with the Belgian striker registering the most goals for the club in a Premier League season.

And after just half an hour, they had handed goals to Ramiro Funes Mori and Aaron Lennon to put Martinez on target for his fifth win in six games.

The Argentine defender says that when Rudy Gestede hit a late consolation he was frustrated, even though Everton had largely dominated the match prior to that.

The result leaves Villa rooted to the bottom and eight points adrift of safety. I don’t want to blame any one player.

Many were demanding a new owner to help turn the club’s fortunes around.

He brought Brad Guzan back in goal and also recalled Micah Richards and Ciaran Clark to play alongside Joleon Lescott in a central defensive trio as part of a 3-5-3 formation, but it was to no avail.

However, speaking after the game, Garde urged everyone connected with the club to stay united as he continues to plot a path to avoid relegation to the Sky Bet Championship.

“When you are bottom of the league it is because there are problems and the more problems you have the more problems come as well”.

“The positive sign is that we never gave up and we reduced the score“.

‘We have to go game by game, it is a big club with a lot of history.

Everton’s fourth win in five Premier League games lifted them to 10th and Funes Mori admits they should be higher.

Still only 22, Lukaku said: “I’m growing as a player and I want to become a better player”.

“I feel their pain because Aston Villa – in this situation – it’s hard to take”. We capitulated in the last home game against Liverpool but against Everton we tried to fight as much as we could.
