Aston Villa may have lost 3-0 to Manchester City on Saturday, but one major complaint from the fanbase actually had nothing to do with the football being played on the pitch.
Indeed, Villa fans weren’t happy as the team wore the new third kit for the first time ever.
The green and black number hasn’t gone down well amongst fans.

You can understand where they’re coming from as well. The third strip looks awful and there’s no reason for them to have not worn the traditional claret attire, as there was no danger of a clash with City’s sky blue.
Unfortunately, there wasn’t even redemption with the scoreline as the reigning champions brushed Villa aside with relative ease.
Hopefully, we don’t see too much more of this kit for the rest of this season, but if Dean Smith’s side do wear this getup a few more times fans won’t be best pleased.
Here’s what the Villa Park faithful have been saying on Twitter.
Great first half. God awful kit! #avfc

We’re playing very well. Don’t look afraid, don’t look a newly promoted team. But MY GAWD that kit is sooooo bad. Yuk #avfc

I thought that kit might look better on the tele… it looks worse. #avfc

Okay. The result didn’t surprise me. The performance overall (but especially the first half) satisfied me on the basis of the formidable opponent. Davis needs to start and now we’ve worn that hideous green kit let’s bin it for good. Up the Villa! #avfc

#avfc Should have at least kept a clean sheet today… We had 11 keepers on the pitch…. Not keen on that kit…. UTV pic.twitter.com/eDe1DwAea9

This has to be the worst @AVFCOfficial kit I have seen… people saying about VAR it wouldn’t have mattered.. the lapse at the start of the second half was game over. Least we did well for the first 45 mins. #avfc #freehit
