Aston Villa drew 1-1 at home to Preston North End in the Championship on Tuesday evening, and fans have taken to Twitter to slaughter the display of on-loan midfielder Josh Onomah.

Villa saw their seven-game winning streak broken by Fulham at the weekend, with the Cottagers running out 2-0 winners thanks to goals from Ryan Sessegnon and Floyd Ayite.

That result had seen Cardiff City shunt Villa down to third in the Championship table in the race for the final automatic promotion spot, where they now remain after Tuesday’s draw.

In a very quiet first 45 minutes it took until a few minutes before half-time for the deadlock to be broken, with Tom Barkhuizen putting the visitors ahead with an overhead kick.

The Preston winger was quickest to react when Sam Johnstone failed to clear from the Villa box, and hooked his finish home to send the visiting side into the lead.

Villa came back into the match through a 66th minute penalty, with January signing Lewis Grabban slotting the spot-kick home.

Focus during and after the game switched to the display of Onomah, who was brought into the side to replace Ahmed Elmohamady, with the Tottenham man disappointing throughout.
