Burnley 2-2 Aston Villa – the fans’ verdict

Burnley 2-2 Aston Villa - the fans' verdict

We asked for your thoughts after Sunday's Premier League game between Burnley and Aston Villa.

Here are some of your comments:

Burnley fans

Dave: If we had played with that kind of spirit and intensity for the last six months we would not be going down. Player against player, virtually EVERY team has been so much better than us, but if you believe and play with that kind of passion, it makes all the difference.

Cunla: A much better performance. We tried to get on the front foot and could easily have won.

Peter: It was definitely the best 90 minutes of the season. Had we played like that more often we would still be in the Premier League for next season. Give Mike Jackson the job now and try and keep most of the squad together but get rid of the deadwood like Lyle Foster!!

John: I really enjoyed this game. First time in a while. I've remembered why I buy a season ticket.

Aston Villa fans

Ian: Players walking around in the first half and what appeared to be a lack of desire isn't good enough. No disrespect to Burnley, who deserved the draw, but Villa were playing a relegated side and could have cemented their Champions League place. It simply isn't good enough. There's no guarantee of winning the Europa League final and they can't rely on teams below them losing. Villa need to adopt a top four or five mentality and achieve things for the fans and the club.

Mark: Yet again a total lack of intensity and continually giving away the ball in our own half, it will cost us if we fail to get Champions League.

Prit: Another complacent performance by Villa against another team in the bottom three. It's important to qualify for European competitions through the league so it is vital Villa turn up for the last two matches. Another tip, try passing the ball to another Aston Villa player.

Claire: Villa never do it the easy way, so we have another tense, nail-biting finish to the season. It's hard to believe the same team could be so different just three days apart. We need to beat Liverpool to be safe.
