Many Aston Villa fans have been angered after the club’s Twitter account posted about the Euro 2020 fixture between England and Germany, following news that Jack Grealish will commence the clash as a substitute [The Athletic].

Enjoying a superb 2020/21 campaign, the boyhood Villa fan notched 19 goal contributions in 27 outings as he helped his side to an 11th-placed finish last time out thanks to seven goals and 12 assists [Transfermarkt].

Now starring with his country at the European Championship, he played an integral part in his first major tournament start, providing an assist for Raheem Sterling in a 1-0 win for the Three Lions against the Czech Republic last week [BBC].

Despite this contribution, he looks set to miss out on featuring from the beginning against Germany this evening [The Athletic]. Duly prompted by the club’s tweet, loads of Aston Villa fans took to Twitter to vent their frustration over Grealish’s likely omission from the starting line-up.
