Only PL game before our Bournemouth game is West Ham vs Liverpool or you talking cup games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn’t have to worry about their results and how we get on, so can therefore enjoy his weekend stress free from Villa related matters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enda Posted January 25, 2020 Author Share Posted January 25, 2020 Quote February Bournemouth, Spurs, Southampton, Sheffield United March Leicester, Chelsea, Newcastle April Wolves, Liverpool, Manchester United, Crystal Palace May Everton, Arsenal, West Ham February is massive. Hopefully we can pick up 7 points from those four fixtures, because we may struggle to get 7 from March and April combined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newry_Villan Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I think 7 points from the February fixtures would be perfect, would be happy with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality another 3 wins after and 37pts should be virtual safety. 40pts is that magical touted number but last needed 2010/11 season Edited January 25, 2020 by Kiwivillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidlewis Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I think we can get to 43 would me mega to get that but the one thing I am unsure of is where do we need to finish to try and keep Jack? assuming he gets assurances we will strengthen if we stay up.

We just need to stay up. He wants to play for Villa in the PL and get selected for England. Every article published about Manure planning a bid for him is a load of BS from Manure supporting journos or ones that hate us. We have 2nd richest owners in UK with a long term plan and the team will be built around Grealish like Wes Edens NBA team is built around the Greek Freak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to keep him if we are still in the Prem. i think we can get 37-43 points. Not sure where that leaves us come May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antetokounmpo is a top 3 player in the world for his sport (admittedly out of about 450 competitive players) Grealish is probably only top 3 in his position (CAM) or in this league. Big difference grealish could get there but it is easier to carry a team when you only have to worry about 4 other players on your team at one time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
