Aston Villa players including Christian Benteke, Ron Vlaar and Fabian Delph release hopelessly dreary Christmas message to fans

[guigousuperstar11]

It is the season to be jolly at the moment, but judging by this video no-one seems to have told Aston Villa’s players that.

 

A host of players including Shay Given, Joe Cole and Gabriel Agbonlahor appear on camera to wish their fans a happy Christmas, with their glad tidings ranging from ‘hope you have a nice day’, to ‘thanks for all your support in 2014′.

 

While Fabian Delph, Ron Vlaar and Christian Benteke do their best to get into some sort of festive spirit, most of the players fail to avoid looking like they’re just reading off an autocue, and the less said about Aly Cissokho’s message the better.

 

Presumably, the only explanation for the downcast nature of the video is that Villa got Roy Keane back in to be it’s creative director. Probably.
