TRO Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I guess the colours Derby play in should be a Stark reminder of Fulham. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Graham Taylor saying that when you get it right, big clubs can turn around very quickly. This time last year, i didn't think we were ready. We would have done a Fulham but with poor antiquated Bruceball and poor infrastructure, management and forward planning. Now, we have good football being coached and implemented with Purslow pulling the management strings and forward planning looks to be put in place too. I'm excited and this week is going to be a long week! I agree totally about us not being ready. Obviously I would rather us have won, but I think most of us here knew that we'd have had to get rid of Bruce at some point in the season even in (or especially in) the Premier League. Our squad was also weaker. We really have to take this chance now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won without Bamford first leg, missed chances to put the tie to bed but thats been a problem all season Bamford or not. A small part maybe regarding Berardi but we were mentally gone by this point anyways. I am worried about Bielsa but id rather be us then you if you dont go up. 3 of your key players all loans will go, Grealish and McGinn may go load of contracts up arent they. You squad would need a total overhaul. Even if they gk we will get around 40-50m for them and it would be very hard to replace them but not impossible. I know what position I'd rather be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avfcwills10 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 How confident are people feeling? I'm not sure why (well I do, I'm a huge pessimist with all things Villa), but after last year I can not visualise anything other that walking out of that Stadium heartbroken again. Am I the only one?
