Aston Villa manager Steven Gerrard has revealed Prince William sent his squad a message of support before taking on Southampton at Villa Park on Friday night.
Gerrard has come under pressure in recent weeks due to poor performances from Villa, but they managed to secure all three points thanks to a Jacob Ramsey goal against the Saints.
Prince William, an avid Aston Villa supporter, couldn't be at Villa Park due to the death of his grandmother, the Queen, but he still took the time to send a supporting message to the Villa boss.
