A number of Aston Villa fans have taken to Twitter to praise Aaron Ramsey’s latest superb performance for the Under-23s.

The 18-year-old attacker has been making waves in the Villans academy, scoring six goals and picking up three assists in 13 games for the U18s last season.

Ramsey was promoted to the U23s at the start of the season, making him one of the youngest members in the setup.

And he has hit the ground running at this level, registering an impressive eight goals and three assists in 18 Premier League 2 appearances.

Ramsey, whose older brother Jacob has made his first-team breakthrough this term, also appeared in two of the club’s EFL Trophy matches during the current campaign.

The England youth international was rewarded for his efforts and progress with a professional contract at Villa earlier this month.

On Friday, Villa were in Premier League 2 action against Stoke City at Bodymoor Heath, falling to a 4-3 defeat.

The hosts took the lead on eight minutes, Kaine Kesler finding the bottom corner, before Ramsey doubled the claret-and-blue advantage.

However, Stoke rallied round in style and put four past Villa before the break.

Though Ramsey netted in the second half to put the hosts within a goal, they couldn’t get back into the game.

Despite Villa’s shock defeat – and the manner in which they lost after leading by two goals – there was plenty of praise for Ramsey on social media.
