Aston Villa have sacked manager Steven Gerrard following Thursday’s 3-0 Premier League defeat at Fulham.
Okay.ng gathered that Villa fans sang various anti-Gerrard chants during the game at Craven Cottage.
A club statement released on Thursday read:
“Aston Villa Football Club can confirm that Head Coach Steven Gerrard has left the club with immediate effect.”
A club spokesman said:
“We would like to thank Steven for his hard work and commitment and wish him well for the future.”
