It is realistic But at the same time it needs to be put in the context that finishing top 4 is **** hard! I'd be disappointed (but not surprised) if villa fans thought we'd made it and we'll now have like a 10 year CL run or CL was guaranteed and now we'll push on and win the league The PL, and the rules, don't work like that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRO Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 (edited) Being influenced by the progress of Rogers it’s not beyond the realms of reason that some of these young players will be more highly rated at the end of the season than the start.

Which I why I would love us to actually go all out to actually win something this season. Finishing 4th was never going to be the promised land that people thought it was but winning a cup will live long in the memory. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
