Aston Villa fans delighted with Chester form

It seems unlikely that Aston Villa will be able to finish second in the Championship this season, but Steve Bruce’s side will fancy their chances of advancing through the playoffs.

There have been a number of impressive performers for Villa throughout the 2017-18 campaign, and there is no question that James Chester is up there when it comes to consistency.

The former Manchester United youngster has scored three times in 43 Championship appearances this season, and has been outstanding at the back.

There is no doubt that the presence of former England captain John Terry has helped him, but Chester has developed into a very good centre-back at this level of football, and will be keen to prove himself in the Premier League next season.

Villa’s official Twitter account was keen to pay tribute to the 29-year-old earlier this week, and the club’s supporters revealed their delight with the defender’s form ahead of a vital few weeks in the season.
