Aston Villa fans have been responding on Twitter to the latest post from striker Borja Baston.
This comes after the Spaniard shared a post on his official Twitter page that included an image of Villa Park with the caption “countdown”, in preparation for Villa’s weekend clash with Tottenham Hotspur.
Would you start Borja Baston against Tottenham?
Yes, let him play
No, not yet
This post then gathered a number of replies from Villa fans who were quick to share their thoughts on Baston’s post.
Here’s a sample of Villa fans responding to the striker’s post:

Last minute winner from Baston ??

The 27-year-old signed to the Birmingham club on a free transfer in the recent January window from Championship side Swansea City. Baston is yet to make his debut for Villa, but with their Villa Park showdown with Jose Mourinho’s side just around the corner, this has given some Villa fans the opportunity to rally round their new striker in the hope he can get his Villa career off to a flying start.
Show us what you got fella!

What do we think?
It’s good to see these Villa fans getting behind their new striker as he could potentially be making his debut for the club at the weekend. If Baston does make an appearance against Spurs and manages to score on his debut, he would surely become a fan favourite in Dean Smith’s side.
