Popular Post tinker Posted October 22, 2023 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2023 I can't think of a manager who has turned a team around so much , from bottom 4 to top 5 in 12 months. It's a truly outstanding achievement, is he the best manager in the premier league, he has to be on his record over the last 12 months? This guys unbelievable. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howe and Emery proof that the need time myth needs to die. Just an excuse to protect bad managers 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Not even one year. Not even 38 games. The **** best of the best of the best. Currently projected for 80 points this season 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a perfect storm - our worst ever Premier League manager was followed by our best (in terms of ability if not achievement, yet). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted October 22, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2023 The standard of punditry in Britain means that the magnitude of what Unai has done at Villa will never be appreciated. They can see the points tally and the results, but they can’t begin to comprehend how he does it tactically. They’re stuck talking about desire, lauding managers who should have been out out to pasture years ago. These same pundits never get beyond ‘playing between the lines’. Unai is operating at a different level, considering the game way, way more deeply. He’s running a football university at Aston Villa and we get to watch graduation every **** week. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 The best way to describe us under Emery is that we've basically been under a perpetual new manager bounce. I suppose that's what it looks like when you have a world class manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently projected for 80 points this season over the course of his 34 PL games he has accrued 68 points, so if that continues if would be 76 actual points over his 38 games (spread over 2 seasons). blimey. 76 points last season would have had us 3rd.

Even though it's been a year I cannot admit to myself that this is sustained and normal for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 2nd or 3rd time I've seen Leon emphasis that Unai makes all of them feel important and keeps the unity even if you're not starting etc. It's clear he's also an outstanding Man Manager behind the scenes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has full backing and full control. He has great owners who will back him. And he's got us on a steeply rising path, a great squad and massive players still to come back. There is literally 0% chance he would leave this to go to Chelsea. I'm certain he fully believes he can take us into the Champions league and beyond. And I believe it too. He's going nowhere. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll throw him a back handed compliment, I think he does better with clubs out kind of size than he does the big top table clubs, your reason is probably why Can sit there and say Chelsea will come for him, or real Madrid or even man City when pep leaves but I don't think that's him, his time at Arsenal and psg is probably some of his most disappointing (that time when all he did was the treble and lose a European cup final...) Maybe it is blind optimism but I'm not convinced he'd go to one of the super league mega clubs, I think what we are and what we're trying to do genuinely pairs brilliantly with who he is, there's nothing for him at Chelsea, it won't click in the same way, his skill set is getting the best out of teams our level 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(and who would begrudge him the chance?) but I genuinely can’t see a Chelsea turning his head. It would be Arsenal all over again. I suspect he will feel he can achieve anything he wants here anyway.
