It was a great night at the Jan Breydel Stadium in Belgium for Villa’s first win of the season. See what the Villa fans on X thought about it. UTV
Well I absolutely loved that. Brilliant game of football. #avfc

Nail biting stuff. Desperately want to see new boys coming in, some positive some not so positive performances, but a massive 3 points

Some result that considering our start to the season.

Job done. The other games are going to be incredibly tough but we’ll keep getting better, I’m sure 😎

📊 Aston Villa had 21 shots against Club Brugge, their most in a Champions League game under Unai Emery 😍

We are back❗️#AVFC
Europe is such a tonic for us. A chance to implement Emery’s structure away from the sheer pace and physicality of the Premier League.

Just like Bologna last season, SJM grabbing the game by the scruff of the neck, proper Captains performance giving us something to build on!
Good start to the campaign but very nervy second half but we hung on. The amount of accounts I seen on here the last week giving our best 11 and not a single one had Gomes in it, he was pure class tonight and MOM by a country mile. Well done Villa 💜💙

What even is Tammy Abraham.
— Chris (@C_Lioneye) September 8, 2026
The sheer delta between what Jackson gives us to Tammy is painfully noticeable.
Significant improvement needed. #avfc
Great win,

I think Gomes and Pau looked quality tonight. Still don’t think we got out of first gear! #utv #avfc
Worried really. Can't say it was good when Bruggw are really quite poor. Emery's subs and refusal to play attacking players is worrying and boring at times

A win away in the Champions league and some our so called fans are still digging out certain players. 🤦♂️#avfc

Gomes was MoTM for me. Jackson, a very close second. #AVFC #UTV @ChampionsLeague

That’s a brilliant result and a good glimpse at what we could become. Long way to go but a really positive step.
— Alex Berwick (@Alex_Berwick) September 8, 2026
Jackson is going to be superb for us. #avfc
I think Alysson’s mystery injury last last was more Unai protecting him until he was ready to play at this level. Still not 100% there but he will get there. #AVFC

For the first time this season – Job Done!

Enjoyed that, watching a team rebuild is good fun – lots more to come into that team
Gomes, Torres, Hemmings all good#avfc
