Unless Bielsa has a wobble and walks that is. Watched some of that Gvardiol and he looks really good to me. I remember people saying something similar about Norwich. Thing is that it's the team, defensive organisation and ability that's so important when you're promoted. That's why I think Ben White is a bigger loss then the positives gained from signing someone like Rodrigo. I expect them to beat the drop, but I'm pretty sure they will be down there rather than midtable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If covid didnt hapoen they probably would have bottled it again Last season it certainly was not. Steve Bruce managed to finish mid table ffs. There were a lot of bang average teams last season.

CP lost 9 games in a row when the season ended. Newcastle looked awfully average. Brighton are nothing special Burnley are overrated. It will be an interesting season. But i do think Bielsa will make a big difference for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we (Villa) have learned anything from last season it is that we aren't too far away and hence have to target these teams, and of course those who have been promoted. Can we achieve that? Of course we can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we can sign Watkins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't get a lot of chances and when he does he looks decent as opposed to anything great. Wouldn't be surprised to see him stay around the championship for the majority of his career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
