tomsky_11 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 The lowest points total he's ever achieved in his entire managerial career from a 26 league game run is 31 (23/02-02/11/2013 at Sevilla), so if he equals this in our remaining games we still finish on 43 points.

It's annoying, for sure. We've basically lost a year of our Villa lives...but I'm excited. Being positive, Kamara is brilliant. Carlos looked brilliant. We now have an unquestionably proven manager. A whipping at Newcastle might dampen my spirits a bit mind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strog Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Can’t see us getting relegated but don’t want to get complacent. Let’s get to 36 points and take it from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was worried, but the game at the weekend and subsequently Emery has put a lot of that to bed - the biggest thing for me was what West Ham have just done. They were joint 17th and below us last night and 1 win with a couple of favourable var calls and they're suddenly 10th. The table is really tight and 1 win will make a huge difference, we've spent the first part of the season without a manager and now we've got a legitimately elite one, the only way is up (I hope!)

Emery is good but I'm not expecting him to guide us to away wins at likes of Liverpool, Man. City, Spurs and Chelsea just yet. Maybe a draw or two if we improve defensive aspects. Think we won 7 away games last season, we'll do well to win 3-4 as things stand so you're not finishing too high up the league with that low a tally. 3 wins from first 6 home games is decent start though and I'd actually say getting to 10 home wins for first time since 2007-08 season is a realistic prospect for us, even more so if we can turn over one of Man. United/Liverpool which will be Unai's first two home games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

picicata Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I'm not worried but I would say that the relegation places are very open this season. I can see someone unexpected falling into the zone due to unfortunate injuries as I don't think any teams are going to get adrift this year. Hopefully we have already had our bad luck in that particular area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 The league is very close. We're only four points after Liverpool despite our disastrous form and performances. With the squad we have and manager we're not going to worry about relegation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope. Impossible. Should say with him not arriving til 1st Nov he only gets 25 games. His worst ever 25 game run is 30 points, so even if we lose this weekend, he only needs to equal that to get us to 42 points end of season. Btw 1.2ppg, another fun fact about that, the following PL era Villa managers have a lower ppg for their entire tenure here: Taylor (51 games, 1.14ppg) Houllier (30 games, 1.13ppg) McLeish (38 games, 1.00ppg Lambert (101 games, 1.00ppg) Sherwood (23 games, 0.87ppg) Garde (20 games, 0.60ppg) Di Matteo (11 games, 0.91ppg) *in Championship Gerrard (38 games, 1.16ppg) Excluding Championship games you get rid of Di Matteo, but add Smith (87 games, 1.15ppg) We've had 15 permanent managers since '92 before Emery, so over half of them haven't got more ppg than Emery's worst 25 game run.
