alreadyexists Posted August 22, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) Not sure where else to put this, but the race for CL seems most applicable. According to Soccer Power Index (whoever they are) we are 13th out of the top clubs in Europe… I mean, there are a few notable exceptions that don’t appear in there, and a few in there that I’d question… but happy with that Edited August 22, 2023 by alreadyexists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVTuco Posted August 24, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 24, 2023 I worry about our fanbase. How can these people that love to moan and give up on our players and managers all the time, suddenly support a great successful team? There must be a lot of people who are confused and lost. Don't feel like you're all alone. Every Villa fan feels the same. We're in this together. VTID! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Early door but spurs and Chelsea look like they'll be better than last season and Brighton don't look like they've fallen off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both were always going to be better if nothing their managers. Still early days, but the gap will reduce with Man Utd, Newcastle. Arsenal might be a bit better, but a bad early form could throw them aswell. Brentford seem good as well. Let’s win tomorrow then see what can we do in the next 3 6 pointers coming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 We need a win just to keep pace with our current competitors based on how results and the table look. Yes i'm aware it's early days, but we need to win our " winnable " games and pull off a couple of upsets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pochettino is a world class manager. That’s why NSWE wanted him. Spurs will fall away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Watching Everton and Wolves today reminded me of the shit we had to watch at Villa for so many years before we got relegated. I have no idea where we will end the season but boy have we come a long way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Poch is world class what does that make Emery, similar ages, managed similar clubs but Emery has won far more trophies than him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea where we will end the season but boy have we come a long way. The bottom half is an appalling standard this season. There are loads of wins for us this season home and away. Bit annoyed we don't get the chance to play Man. United or Arsenal early as currently both are a mess defensively and in midfield. They'll both likely have sorted that out by December. We'll be o.k. Can't promise 5th or 6th but we'll be in the mix based on the opening few weeks as we have plenty of goal potential in our team now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I felt bad about not putting him at the top but could argue he hasn't had enough league success? Albeit he hasn't been at teams really capable of that except for PSG. Don't get me wrong though I wouldn't swap him for anyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However (the boxing’s on) pound for pound he’s every bit as equal (imo) of Pep and The ‘perennial plucky underdog’ Klopp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
