I still think we’ll finish above them. They’ll drop of if they get deep into the Europa
I think we’ll be fightin spurs for 4th place. I think spurs will beat Newcastle this weekendRight now I see the first three positions being strongly in the hands of City, Liverpool, and Arsenal, and fourth through seventh really up for grabs between us, Newcastle, Spurs, and Villa.
My gut still says Newcastle and us in fourth and 5th, with the order being up for grabs.
Even if he scored goals in January only it would still be an upgrade on our current strikers output.Hopefully he scores goals from February to May as well.
Hope you’re right.Yes. We get this nonsense every year. People pumping up other clubs with low expectations. The micro analysis for us is a lot different to what takes place for Villa because who the feck cares except their fans. Which means hyperbole tends to come with it.
Can't say that we'll have a great season but confident we'll be better than the likes of them.
They're in ELC which is lesser in term of quality opposition. Topping the group thiI still think we’ll finish above them. They’ll drop of if they get deep into the Europa
I think a better thread is will Man. United finish above Brighton?Will we finish above Bournemouth?
ECL doesn’t even get them into CL. If they are close to top in February, they will probably sacrifice Europe to stay in contention and get into CL. They should be able to get far in ECL even whilst playing their second string team anyway, their squad is actually quite deep and the quality of teams in ECL is quite poor.They're in ELC which is lesser in term of quality opposition.

us not playing an extra round, they should be able to deal with the ELC and PL fixture. They have decent squad depth bar CF position. I think secretly Emery would want to drop out of FA Cup ASAP. For Aston Villa, getting CL football next season would be huge. ELC is easier competition for them to win, than gamble with luck of draw in FA Cup coming against tougher PL oppositions.

Meh. They did well to get those consecutive big scalps but City were without their best midfielders and Arsenal absolutely battered them and only foiled by some defending heroics. Solid team but if that’s the general level of play then they will hit a bump pretty soon, especially with fixtures pile up.What a thread.
Boy, they’re in trouble now - they look like going deep in the shit Euro comp and now we have a nice easy scheduleYes. They'll go deep in the shit Europe comp.
Next.
