Aston Villa Thread - 2022/23

So far the best defense in the league. The only goal conceeded was an own goal.

See if Dunk and or Webster are in the next England squad.

Do you think your defensive stability is down to your defence or the system and pressing style that you play?

As a BHAFC fan, this really pisses me off. Villa and Everton fans seem to think that Potter would just walk out on us ans go to them becauae they both see themself as bigger clubs.

Yes both have a bigger fan base but they live on past glory. To me its what is relevent now. Huddersfield and Portsmouth have won more than us should i be worried if they sack their managers in case they want Potter?

I would hope Potter realises hes onto a good thing with us, Villa fans bringing up about 30 of our fans booing potter as if it our own fan base that done it, then booing there own team after another defeat and planning who who will replace him when hes only been at Villa kess than a year.

Can i finally end with a thank you for letting Palace go 2 nil up yesterday, for nearly 5 min we were top of the Premier League.

Potter is far too good for Villa or Everton. The job he's done at Brighton, the football you play, he's got to be looking at the likes of Chelsea/Arsenal/Spurs. He's earned his place up there. I don't see a move to Villa or Everton as a promotion.

If anything it would be a demotion and a slap in the face. Arsenal would be a good fit after Arteta.

No offence to Everton but every offence meant to Villa and their arsehole fans, I agree neither club is a step up from Brighton and Hove Albion. At the moment both are a step down (apologies to Everton fans).

To be fair to Gerrard just like Ten Hag he’s had to adapt to a new language with Villa. People forget he’s scouse not English.

To be honest, our defense since we have been in the PL has been pretty good. What i have noticed that some times we are now going long, instead of always playing out from the back. This cost us a few times last season.

I would like to think his next club is a top 6 club. Keep him away from the England job.

3 at the back helps with that. The next step for Potter is maybe going to 4 at the back to allow you to attack better, but it’s tough.

He’s doing an amazing job with you and he’d be mad to go to any similar sized club without a decent owner/setup for him to work freely under.

I hope he gets you top 6 (but not beating us of course). Why not? If you can find a decent striker and have a bit of luck with injuries. He's a brilliant coach - he gives players confidence to.play yet he's pragmatic and can organise a team. It helps having quality leaders like Dunk but still he gets the best out of everyone. McAlister is very underrated.

I truely hope they plod on with slippy and get exactly what they deserve.
