Nigel Reo-Coker has taken a swipe at Aston
Villa's boo-boys after their victory at
Liverpool this week.
The midfielder said: "We have won at Anfield and the players
were simply brilliant.
"We finished sixth (last season), and we qualified for Europe.
Then we were booed off by our fans after the Wigan game. Okay, that's fine because we were
beaten in the match.
"But we were also booed off at half-time, just 45 minutes since
we finished sixth. Maybe people should look at that because I was
disconcerted myself with it.
"I certainly didn't hear Liverpool being booed off by their own fans after
their team lost.
"This is essentially a young side, and they will be criticised
by me when it is deserved. But they will also take the praise when
we do well, we have some outstanding players here."
He added: "I found it staggering to hear so many prophecies
about us after just one or two games.
"Now we must add some defensive experience in the next few days.
We are trying, it is not easy but we will keep trying."
