Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert has admitted that he understands the frustrations of the club's supporters after their side fell to a 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace on Boxing Day.
Dwight Gayle's late goal condemned Villa to their sixth home defeat of the campaign, and Lambert is eager to reward their loyalty with three points against Swansea City on Saturday.
The 44-year-old told the Birmingham Mail: "I understand their frustrations. I'm disappointed – in fact, I'm the most disappointed person in the stadium – but you pick yourself up and you lift your head.
"The way that you bounce back is by winning – that's what you have to do. You have to give the supporters something to go with. The support is there."
Villa currently sit in 13th position in the Premier League table.
