Premier League 23/24

Small team mentality
If don't bounce back then probably deserve not making top4

Good thing about this time of year with congested fixtures is doesn't take long to have another game to focus on and forget previous performance.

If we don't get all 3 points on Saturday then yeah, can definitely start considering the possibility we've blown it especially given the last 4 fixtures.

RIP our title challenge. 22nd December-26th December, 2023. Good night, sweet prince.

Hope you get 4th though, not impossible.

The title race will eventually be between City and Liverpool.


Right now, it's City 75% and Liverpool 25%.


Half the season is left. Too early to talk about the title race tbh.


I'll be shocked if we win. Our defense isn't reliable over a 38 game season. Also, we aren't scoring much recently. Then you have VAR screwing us every other weekend. 6 definite points robbed already.........

Definitely not impossible, if we have our strongest XI available like we did for most of the games so far we have every chance.

Just saying that cause u afraid you'll get hanged here.

Nope. I have never shied away from making bold predictions.


Our defense is actually shite this season. As is VAR's officiating on our games.


Oh and City are way too strong in a league format..........


It's 75-25 between City and us.


Arsenal not in the title race.

How is van dijk? Heard he is slowly getting back to best or close to it?

VVD is still VVD but the entire team is struggling as a defensive unit. It's not as airtight as before. Much easier to create chances against us.


Tactical and personnel issues.


Allison is incredible. Without him we wouldn't be top 4 rn.

VAR in Prem this year has been absolutely farcical. Make every decision up as they go along.

Tell me about it!


I thought they'll get better at using the technology but it's gotten worse.

 

[Horatio]

I just now realized…looking at bruno fernandes i think he would have the ugliest mug if he shaved that beard. What say you? @Temptation

 

[Givenchy]

I didn't watch, how the f did a quality side like Aston Villa lose with a 2 goal lead against a midtable side like United?

looks like they took the foot off the gas after going 2-0 up. This time United didn't put their heads down and deserved the win in the end.

 

[Porque]

Blew it like it's 2001. Could of gone top but instead concede 3 goals away to a fuckin United.

I remember watching that game as a wee Why and learned never to put my trust and hope into Villa.

 

[Zidane82]

I’m gonna be brave ( plus hopeful)

Arsenal or Liverpool to win
Man City third
Spurs 4th

 

[Porque]

Everyone talking about Villa making top 4 and the CL but Emery has his eyes on the Europa League!
