I will never take that for granted after being bored to tears by Bruce and Steven. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duke313 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Hope he’s given the funds in the summer to improve the starting XI. There is a good foundation there, but we’re lacking those couple players to allow us to see games out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would agree whilst at the same time under MON I was young and naive enough to think villa would just get CL and push on from there The gulf between the haves and have nots is **** huge compared to when MON was here, emery has a much tougher job 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeroy Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Great start just like Gerrard, bu reverted to poor form again. Maybe some people are right, this squad is just not good enough and we need wholesale changes in the summer. The defence is worse than at any time under Smith or Gerrard, if Emery doesn't sort that out sharpish he will start getting a lot of criticism because he's supposed to be good at organising his teams and defence in general. We are the complete opposite of watertight. Must win against Everton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supermon Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Have to say I don't feel overly infuriated with the results, yes we capitulated but there are signs there that Unai is developing something.

LondonLax Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 He’s stopped the rot and got us playing to a system. You can see some of the results already in the one touch passing and some of the goals (like our second today ) We’ll finish comfortably mid table which is a great relief after the start we had under ‘he whom shall not be named’. It sets us up well for a genuine push at making a European place next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are the complete opposite of watertight. Must win against Everton. It’s not a must win. Stop this silliness. Villa fans don’t know their arse from their elbow. In one breath it’s “ trust the process, then we panic and say “ it’s a must win “ He’s an elite coach, trying to change the way we play and it’s obvious 4-5 including the keeper probably won’t be here long term. They aren’t getting up to speed and won’t. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn’t really a soft underbelly even though their second goal was annoying. Regardless I agree with your point. Leicester was a cracking game which we could have won 7-6, and then losing to City and Arsenal isn’t too bad. Hoping we now bounce back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 i back Emery 100%, if we cant improve under him we may as well pack our bags. Emery needs to be backed to the hilt in the summer, its critical we get 4-6 new players in, need to offload quite a few also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are the complete opposite of watertight. Must win against Everton. We've lost courtesy of a blatant dive from Grealish (just when it looked like we were getting back into things) and a shot that hit the bar and rebounded in off our keeper's head. In both matches we've had our moments. We haven't turned up playing to only lose 2-0 or 3-0. We've also hit the bar in both matches when if the goal goes in it would have massively changed the momentum. We've also just lost to the two top teams in the league. We aren't going to be able to spend £1 billion to bring in players on a level with Man City. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
