You can't rest players for the Champions League... exactly what happened to Newcastle last season. To compete and prosper in the Champions League and Premier League you need 18-22 proven high class internationals at your disposal. Of course only a few clubs who pay more than 200k per week in wages can manage that. Villa and Newcastle ain't one of them.

Emery has made a name for himself as a Europa league level coach. I always felt that was because in Spain, you an rest your first team in the league and put a strong side out in the Europa league.
Can't do that here. Guess it's even harder for him in the CL.
Wonder what Villa fans are saying about Emery
Who gives a fuck
Put the question in the General Football thread where it belongs.
The whole forum often wonders the same thing for the majority of your posts about ENIC in non related threads so there we go
No, just a new poster trying to seek solace with fellow fans
Wonder what Villa fans are saying about Emery
"Skinny Basque fraud CUNT" I imagine if they're anything like us
Welcome to the mad house!
GodNot saying he's a Jonah, but that Villa winless run pretty much starts the momentDeuterz suggested Emery should be our manager
Because he's so fucking weird that even the Weyland-Yutani Corporation would leave him frozen in space.Why would anyone boo Levy when he's clearly provided the manager with a Top 3 and cup winning squad
It's astonishing how one of the winningest managers in Europe - multiple EL winner - who has dragged Villa from the depths of a relegation battle to the most prestigious Club competition in the world - could be brought to ruin by a poster on a random Spurs forum just suggesting Emery should come to Spurs.
Tottenham Hotspur - we can destroy any dream, by anyone, anywhere.
Agreed. The real culprit of course is Levy as our lowest in league cost:income ratio is the key reason for our underperformance.
Steadily becoming less and less convinced by Ange though. Summer window was ok-ish. Gray we overpaid for, and Odobert too, but they are genuinely good prospects. Solanke is a good signing. But we need another 1 or 2 proven mid 20s elite signings. And we don't pay sufficient wages for that. Feels like that is more on Levy than Ange.
On Ange is the tactical blindness. The other night against Roma it was obviously we were getting hosed down the left, yet he did nothing about it positionally. Happens time and again with Ange.

I work with a Villa fan who is a season ticket holder and we were talking about that yesterday. They aren't' blaming the manager, more the board for not replacing Douglas Luiz and not dealing with the Diaby situation, leaving them ultimately with a weaker team up front and in midfield. But they realise hands have been tied with FFP , oh and they also think watkins is toilet who doesnt work hard for the team.
Spot on with this post... played Archie Gray at left back even though he's never played there in his life before he joined us... and Roma just kept on doubling up on him. When they weren't doing that, they were over loading Porro who looked like he was running in treacle after 60 mins... Ange just lets it play out in belief we will get a third... the old Cobra Kai philosophy - the best defence is more offence.
Oh look, it's the forum policeman. Captain irony.
Fucking irony/lack of self-awareness in your comment lol.
And plenty of people give a fuck. It's an interesting comparison. Don't like it...keep your big beaked nose out.

When I started it was Juande Ramos, and I remember having similar hopes of being lifted by winter reinforcements for years.
You will learn the ways of Levy... and still be stuck here like I am

This is our grand pattern, isn't it? Solanke is a decent player, but the trouble is that we blew a huge sum on Richarlison and needed to blow another pile of cash on Solanke to fix it. If we'd get it right the first time we could have spent more for an elite player the first time and still had cash left over for other quality signings.
8 of the club's top 10 most expensive signings in history are with the team right now, and the team isn't good enough.
Here he goes again. Trying to be relevant and stir up another cunt off.
Honestly, mate...you never learn .

You mean, like the post you made which you didn't need to? I'll butt out now, now that I've put you in your place (again) but a couple of things to leave you with...
1. I'm not your 'mate'. I'd rather eat shit than be your mate.
2. Quit telling people what and where to post. I'm frankly baffled you can't see the irony in your own posts. It has to be one of two things - a chronic lack of self-awareness, or a deliberate choice.
3. I'm more relevant to this forum than you'll ever be. Because I'm a spurs fan.

Now you've been told, I suggest you take some time to reflect on your behaviour.
