Made In Aston Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 13 hours ago, Mantis said: another away at a very good Brighton side where we clearly outsmarted them tactically, and that was with late absences as well This is even more of an achievement because he would have had to revise the game plan at short notice due to the Bailey and Watkins illnesses. The lack of pace up front made the job harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villaphan04 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 also have to think that he wouldn't have come here last year with Villarreal still in the CL as he turned down Newcastle for similar reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can actually see the difference on the pitch. With Carlos coming back and maybe 1 or two additions in January, he could have us firing by the end of Feb. Or now, 2 wins in 2.

I actually thought they were losing interest at one point with how long they stuck with Gerrard. We can really push on. I agree. We should all be thankful for the Smith era. He laid the foundations here by getting us promoted and building a squad that was very keen to learn and develop. Emery will reap all the benefits and has already commented how receptive the players are to his coaching methods. We saw how quickly they took it all on board from the matches under Emery so far.

However there does seem like an alignment of the stars in this appointment, he would not have come without deep assurances of major support in the transfer market and also I like the fact Sawiris presented him very much as his man MON pulled the rug from under his own feet by signing overpaid old junk like Beye (I could make long list of others but can't be bothered). Plus he was absolute flog of manager elsewhere once Robertson retired 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Apparently emeey has decided he doesn't want to sign either bednarek or augs on permanent deals. Have to admit i dont think either has done much to warrant a full time contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imavillan Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Short interview here with his aims for Villa, mentions new players (not names)....all sounds good for us until he's asked about the world cup and he put's England in the mix.. lost all credibility with that statement 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
