Aston Villa fans have been reacting on Twitter to Gabriel Agbonlahor’s latest dig at rivals Birmingham City.
This comes after Villa fan account @villareport shared a post on their Twitter page that included a video clip of him speaking to Sky Sports which was published by Football Daily.
The clip showed Agbonlahor saying that Villa staying in the Premier League will be massive for the city as Birmingham City are in the Championship.
Is Gabriel Agbonlahor a Villa legend?
Yes
No
This post then gathered a lot of replies from Villa fans who were delighted to see their former man take aim at their rivals.
Here’s a sample of Villa fans responding to the post:

What do we think?
A former Villan making fun of Birmingham City is always going to get a big reaction from Villa fans. There’s no real harm in friendly banter between the two clubs, however, if Villa do get relegated this season, Agbonlahor and the Villa fans may not be laughing for much longer.
