No, never

Looking forward to seeing you help the Villa stay in the league.
Be bold, be confident and don’t let early critics get you down.
You’re a Villan now. Go smash it!

The 27-year-old, who is currently valued at £3.6 million according to Transfermarkt, joined the Birmingham club in the recent January transfer window from Championship side Swansea City on a free transfer. Baston made his first appearance as a Villa player last weekend, coming on as a late substitute in Villa’s 3-2 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at Villa Park.
Now that Baston has made a post on his Twitter interacting with the fans and showing his happiness with his new shirt, this has paved the way for numerous Villa fans to share their thoughts on the post.
Be even better if you knock a few in too. ?

Couldn’t care less what’s on the back. It’s the badge on the front that’s important.

What do we think?
It’s great to see Baston taking pride in his new club’s shirt as this is a good way of winning over the fans. The hope for the fans now is that when called upon again, Baston can start scoring goals to help the club get results and avoid relegation back to the Championship.
