    Media are fuming we’ve got 4th, either not talked about our achievement or people like Simon Jordan saying if we don’t get Champions League next season he’ll be sacked 🙄 but then defending spurs saying they haven’t failed this season.

      I wonder what Jordan would of said if it was villa in spurs shoes? If we were top of the league unbeaten after 8 games etc....
      He would be saying we bottled it if we were in spurs position now lol

    I think this team hasn’t just appeared overnight, it was one of the youngest in the league under smith right up to Gerrard arriving. He added some older players but ultimately the youngsters maturing have formed the basis for Unai. Both Smith and Unai have set milestone records on the way, 10 wins on the trot, most games won at home, only team to survive in our position with 7 games left, this teams done everything but win a cup and is just in its prime.

    Being even older than Matt (!) I've been disappointed too many times to go completely overboard but this is the best I remember since the mid 1990s. I'll go further, Emery is the best manager we've ever had, the two Ronnies included. In fact I don't think it's even close.

  • @nigelhughes6096

  • @GorgeDawes

    Mr. Emery said something on Monday night which I think really speaks to the character of the man. In his post-match remarks he expressed his concern for Zaniolo, who had to come off injured only a few minutes coming on as a sub. He stated that the medical staff will assess him and do everything possible to help him be fit for the Euros where he hopes he will be part of the Italy squad. Bear in mind that this a player who we might generously say has been a qualified success at Villa and who might not ever kick a ball for Emery again. Plenty of managers wouldn’t give a player in that situation a second thought, Emery clearly feels otherwise. I think it demonstrates a capacity for inspiring loyalty from his players that matches his tactical brain. Players and supporters alike are lucky to have this mean running our team.

    Having managed Villa in the champions league in FM24 with the new champions league format, I can speak from experience that you need around 16 points minimum usually to qualify directly for the round of 16. I have won it about 40 times

  • @jjfreer
    @jjfreer Před 17 dny +1

    i think the slow grind starts now of inching ourselves higher in terms of position or consistency. can see us hovering up and down around the 7th - 4th/3rd positions for a few years while we try and force ourselves as high as possible. Any European spot finish for us is a success. so 7th or above and a challenge in one of the 3 competitions. wether thats ucl conference fa cup league cup etc. if we can do any of that each year thats bloody amazing. Just dont want to turn in one of those teams that claims to be having a terrible season if were not in the top 4 every year, like man u, like spurs etc. We need to be happy with anything around 7th or above. Were not going to have fantastic season every season, the same way you cant win every game of football.

    • @imightbewrong_
      @imightbewrong_ Před 16 dny +1

      Very sensible. It's such a competitive league especially with ourselves and Newcastle joining the party. 4 (or 3) out of 8 big teams will miss out on CL going forward. Finishing e.g. 5th or 6th next season will not necessarily be a failure.

  • @kelvinhill
    @kelvinhill Před 17 dny

    4th or higher would be great next season to aim for but I don't think that should be our expectation. Lot of big teams in the PL so it will be tough. I'd be okay with top 6 again considering where we have been in the recent years.

    we can get drawn against English sides but UEFA have said they're confident that won't be necessary next season. There's no advantage on the pots only other than it is linked to your coefficient and that determines part of the prize money you receive! UTV!

No offence to VILLArreal, but they are not a club the size of Villa with our fanbase, and owner clout!! We are the ONLY club right that is rock solid and 100% UNAIfied!

Simon Jordan was particulary patronising on Talk Sport, basically saying well done to Villa (pat on the head) , but this will just be a moment in time, and expect the likes of Chelsea and Tottenham to back in their rightful place come the end of next season.🙄
