‘Can’t remember the last time being this optimistic’ – The delight for these Aston Villa fans continues

Aston Villa fans must be feeling a little bit more upbeat than they were yesterday with them announcing a new manager last night.
The Villans had gone a week without a manager after Steve Bruce’s sacking last week and it was starting to drag on with it appearing that some names had turned them down.
Dean Smith is who they made a move for yesterday evening, though, and they quickly got him after agreeing a compensation package with Brentford to take him from Griffin Park.
He and John Terry will work together as they look to take the Villans back up, then, and it seems safe to say the fans of the club are pleased with what has gone on with their side.
After the club posted this on Twitter, fans were quick to respond:

It looks like there’s a happy bunch of Villans knocking about at the moment, then, and Smith will look to ride the crest of that wave as much as possible.
