It isn’t going to happen It was like this in the years when we were circling the drain in the PL, the relegation thread was full of worry that every other team down at the bottom could go on to win 10 games in 10 but villa couldnt get 2 wins in that same spell There's absolutely nothing to suggest man utd are capable of going on a run but that we can't Edited March 16 by villa4europe 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Captain_Townsend Posted March 16 Popular Post Share Posted March 16 (edited) Maybe it's my psyche but so long as we aren't in the bottom half I am relatively relaxed. The Lerner era haunted me so I see this as a major step forward from where we ended up in 2016. If we land the Conference League and finish 6th that is still our best season since 1996 for me. I think we will get top 5 and it is about 50:50 we can get 4th. That's an amazing position to be in mid March!

That’s title winning form. It isn’t going to happen 70 will not be enough for fourth. Fifth yes but definitely not fourth. Spurs need 17 points from remaining games to hit 70. They should get 12 from their games v Sheffield Utd, burnley, forest and luton. That means they will only need 5 from all of their other games to hit 70 which is extremely likely with how good they currently look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshVilla Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Spurs tend to shit the bed against the shitter sides though so i wouldnt say 12 pts from them games is guaranteed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Townsend Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 As we saw ourselves, football isn't played on paper and we got tripped up against Forrest away and sheff united at home. Odd results do happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DakotaVilla Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Burnley and sheff Utd will be relegated by the point they play them so may as well give them the 6 points now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd results do happen. Just because we bottled those games doesn’t mean spurs will. They have everyone fit again and looked extremely dangerous v us last week as they did when they had everyone fit at the start of the season. Wishful thinking I’m afraid if we are hoping for them to falter. Luton at home might be the only one that causes them issues out of those 4.

The first half there was very little in it. We handed them their first two goals by falling asleep and we can ignore the last 30 mins against 10 men. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played Man City off the park a couple of weeks before we drew with a Sheff Utd. I won't be throwing in the towel just yet. Lots of football to be played.

DakotaVilla Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 That’s part of the game. We got absolutely battered by them in the second half whichever way you look at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are very likely to achieve that so we have to match their results which we have every chance of doing but it’s going to be incredibly difficult. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their defence looking shocking when he was out before Christmas and their bad spell happened then. Maddison was also out then I agree but their defence looked awful and Romero is guaranteed to be sent off before the end of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since signed a highly rated Dragon. Not sure how he looks though so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
