So it happened, finally. And if you’re like me, for a solid two hours after Jack’s England call up was announced, I scrolled endlessly through Twitter looking at people’s reactions. There were some good. Some funny. Some not so funny. And some totally absurd.
In case you missed it, here’s a selection of the best media and fan tweets, put together just for you.
Let’s start with the official, unofficial announcement:
And then this from England:
Followed by this from Sky Sports, letting us know why Jack was really picked…
But how about this absolute peach from @bet365…
@EuroWeeklyNews saying it how it is…
@StanCollymore with a stat you just love to see on a Monday afternoon…
Matched by some golden content from Aston Villa themselves…
And we just had to include this…
What the fans had to say
Love this from ❤❤ @Simonlines:
Also a great one from @avfc_1982:
“Our England Duo” (@seanlangley94):
I think this from @sawdy_land speaks for every Villa fan out there:
And my personal favourite from @JustNathanWard:
Another favourite, this time from @EddAVFC…

True say @AntWilliams91:
Great response from @FroggattHayden 👏…
It’s inevitable, surely? (@ThePaulStringer)…
Couldn’t help but laugh at this, and think of all the Blues and Leeds fans (@gortavfc)…

I couldn’t agree more with @_grahamyoung’s original tweet and @ianherbs’s reply…
Thing is, he really could be…

It’s in Jack’s nature to rise to the occasion. I mean, look what happened against Blues in 2019 (@michael_LS11)…
