Every Aston Villa player’s 2021/22 season ranked from best to worst according to the statistics.

Every Aston Villa fan will have an opinion on who their star player was over the course of the 2021/22 campaign.

Whilst the season itself was below par in terms of what was achieved, there were still plenty of players that deserve credit - whilst others - not so muh.
