Aston Villa fans have been reacting on Twitter to the latest club post of Tom Heaton and new arrival Pepe Reina.
Indeed, this comes after the official Villa Twitter account shared a post on their page that included a video clip of Reina meeting and hugging Heaton.
Is Reina a good replacement for Heaton?
Yes
No
This post then led to a large number of Villa fans replying with their thoughts on the footage.
Here’s a sample of Villa fans responding to the latest club post:

Heaton will miss the rest of the season after picking up a nasty knee injury against Burnley earlier this month. And, more recently, Reina signed to the club on a loan deal for the rest of the season from AC Milan.
This latest footage showing the two ‘keepers chatting certainly warmed the hearts of some Villa fans who then took to Twitter to voice their opinions.
feel sorry for Heaton. He was doing great for us before that unfortunate injury.

What do we think?
It was great to see Heaton in good spirits welcoming Reina to the club after suffering such a bad injury. The best thing for everyone at Villa now is that Heaton can recover from his injury and that Reina can do a good job for the club in his absence.
