Champions League

[Marat18]

Honestly, if you offered me 4 points from the next two games, I think I'd take it.

I?d bite it off.

Tbh, 2nd is only possible if Arsenal would focus on CL and play reserves/mixed team in EPL

Villa away will be interesting indeed. We need to see how they squad reacts to the soul crushing defeat after leaving it all out on the field in the 2nd leg against PSG.

We are their next game, We play tonight. So, they've got 1 more days rest in their legs but with a win we'll take the momentum into that game. Everyone in our squad, as Barnes commented knows we can win every game we're in such is the level of confidence since winning the cup.

That is Champions Mentality.

Something Villa are not going to have after being KO'd by PSG despite giving everything they've got. It's the realisation that as a squad and individuals you just aren't good enough, facing a team in NUFC who know they are champions.

That's that air of invincibility that the red filth carried during the Fergi years. We have that now. Other teams do not!

3rd and on 59 points. 5 points ahead of Chelsea in 6th place, it?s ours to lose now. Anyone know how many piont got fourth in previous seasons

[toptoon]

5th place (gets CL this season) got 66 (spurs), 67 (livarpool) and 69 (arse) in the last 3 seasons.

We'll finish no lower than 3rd.

We win only our last 3 at home we finish on 68pts.

Brighton - last 5 Results Win / Win / Draw / Loss / Loss Draw. They are tailing off toward the beach end of the season.

Not taking anything for granted they're still a pain in the bum but on form we're steam rolling the teams that generally cause us headaches.


Arsenal's eyes will be on the UCL without doubt. Dunno when the play their 2nd leg against PSG but everything seems to be panning out in our favour on this most excellent of run ins!

Second leg of the semi is on the 6th or 7th May. We play them on the 18th (can't believe the last game is 25th May-seems incredibly late?)

[Sclox]

If we'd played like this earlier Liverpool would be looking over their shoulders right now.

I'd say easily we are the best team in the PL currently and I'd even go so far as to say we would handle or at least give a game to any of the CL semi finalists this year.

Absolutely dream days.

thanks Zip.

Well they'll be KO'd by then, as bottlers always bottle it, so they'll have nothing to play for.

We're the most inform club in the country

[PhoneymcRingRing]

Are you still as confident as before? What a difference a game makes. Thank God we have Ipswich next you couldn?t ask for a better team to play. We need to play all our remaining matches like we are desperate to get into the champions league because you can bet Aston Villa will.

It?s squeaky bum time.

Not at all.
Its all about how the team reacts. Two years ago after 0:3 at Villa Park we won 3 in a row (I think including Spurs trashing and Man Urd win).
But I also remember how hard getting the points was back then - 2:2 at Leeds, 0:0 vs Leicester
