Aston Villa failed to make up ground on the top six after they were beaten 3-0 by struggling Wigan this afternoon.

Dean Smith's side went into the game on a high after the news that top scorer Tammy Abraham was staying, combined with Derby's defeat last night.

However, they were awful against the Latics who looked hungrier than the visitors.

A first-half goal from Gary Roberts gave Wigan a deserved lead and after the break it was one-way traffic, with a header from Michael Jacobs and a penalty from Joe Garner sealing an emphatic win.

Smith will have been livid with the way his side fell apart and that there was no reaction from the players, even after a triple change.

As you would expect, the fans were extremely unhappy and worried after the display, although they remain within five points of the top six.

Here's some of the reaction on twitter...
