Bruce held us back and should have gone earlier - smith is getting the best from this team and we will only get better from here Will be so sad if we lose to a dinosaur like Pulis.

Keep beating them against the odds, pegging them back and climbing the table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously. But that doesn’t mean we should aim for the play offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Will start getting excited if we beat Forest. Remember what happened after Wolves last season. They are a tough team to beat this season. Think we'll lose at Boro (they'll inevitably score from a corner) and shut down our attack. Got a good feeling for West Brom away. 5-6 points from our next three would be a good return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the words of the great Ron Saunders - “Do you want to bet against us?” If we didn't have boro and wba as a in next 3 if say yes. But two of the toughest we could have asked for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) We should be 10 - 15 points better off than where we are now. So much wasted time under the previous clown. I don't fear the baggies, it's a local derby and anything can happen but we will need to be better than we were today defensively.

More of a worry for me is if the opposition put there early chances away - Derby missed a couple of sitters, and the noses came within a whisker of being 0-2 up .

If we had a defence I think we would walk this league. We definitely need a cb, lb and I still am not convinced with nyland so I would add a keeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want to catch those above us then taking points directly off those teams is the best way to do it. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will drop points though unfortunately as they are tough games then we have the leaders Leeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest are a very very well drilled side as you’d expect with their manager, they lack flair but they are consistent and in Lolley they’ve a real in form threat. It will be tough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) So out of a run of 7 tought games and a potential 21 points we already have 6. Another 9 points out of the next 5 games would be a great return and keep us in the mix. I fancy us to beat forest, stoke and Leeds.
