The SCARY Truth About Aston Villa Nobody is Noticing

[@MrTim207]

Decent overview of Villa’s recent fortunes. NSWE and Emery are a formidable partnership, and despite your title being a bit ‘clickbaity’, it’s not too far off the mark as many don’t realise the ambition, wealth and expertise at Aston Villa now.

[@pedtalkssports]

Thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed and understood the title. Have a feeling many may not get the point!

Exactly this 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@SimBir08]

He was unfortunate enough to be in possibly Aston Villa's worst squad in living memory but I've never really rated him as a player. He got carried by City to get a league winners medal. He's great as a pundit but was never really that good as a player.

[@busterruff9369]

Totally agree Micah milked Villa for 60 grand a week ,shocking player with shocking attitude,

[@TTguava]

I had a season ticket with my dad for 4 years starting the season we went down, shortly after that my dad was diagnosed with cancer and sadly we couldn’t make it to villa park anymore but we watched every game on the tele. His fights with cancer ended around the same time as Gerard being sacked. I know my dad is looking down with the biggest smile with how our boys are doing right now he watched them lift the European cup in Rotterdam hopefully I can watch us win the champions league one day. I’ve really struggled to watch football since he passed but hopefully with us doing so well it will get me back into it. I’ve been watching KZbin since I was 10 I’m now 20 and this is probably the first comment on any post apart from the odd emoji. Thank you so much for making a video about my forgotten about giant of a football club

I'm not yet 60 but when I was in my teens Villa were the most decorated club in English football, add to that the fact that London apart no other UK city is close to the size of Birmingham. I watched that 2019 play off final in a local bar, it was packed with Villa fans, on the walk home I saw other Villa fans who'd clearly watched the game elsewhere, I didn't see any Derby fans.

The fans of these clubs will flock to the content because it’s nice to see someone talking about their team, and neutrals will follow the content because it’s exciting to see these clubs begin to rise up through the table.

Wow, you did your homework and for once an accurate video about this famous old historic English club. 1874 founded, and its chairman, founded the very first football league in 1888. It also has one of the most famous stands in England called the 'Holte End', recognised by all fans for its fanatical support.

[@EnriqueBartulac]

Villa reminds me of Spurs in a way. Two clubs that struggled as lower mid table teams for years. Both got better under new owners and even made it to an EFL cup final. Eventually they would finish higher and higher until they qualified for the UCL. Over those years many gems would leave like Grealish at Villa and Bale at Spurs. Could Villa like Spurs consistently qualify for the UCL?

[@redx11x]

We cannot be compared to Spurs. Over the last ten years Spurs have been in the Champions league 4-5 times. That's shows a quality squad. Villa will never be able to compete financially with Spurs due to Spurs fan base and billion dollar stadium etc etc. What we do have is the best tactical manager in the league, if it wasn't for ffp and him receiving the backing to sign who he wants, then we can compete in the top 6.

[@bhvillaman4401]

Emery has done amazing things. It does seem like the end of the season the team lost form and I don’t know if that’s just playing so many games, injuries, squad depth or getting found out. But when Kamara got injured we seemed a lot more frail. Likewise Diego Carlos hasn’t been the most consistent player and I wouldn’t be against selling him with Mings coming back

[@grenvillephillips6998]

Villa have flirted with the top places several times in recent decades but somehow failed to cross the line. Other clubs have done the same and Leicester even won the PL. So the question is whether it was just Villa's turn, or will they do what so many middling clubs have done, after defying the odds. I suspect that the whole structure of the PL, the demands of European qualification, and the FFP regulations, are designed to protect the big brands who attract the global audiences. If Villa can do it twice, then that will be the time to start believing that the PL is not a handicap race, for the benefit of the biggest brands.

Steven Gerrard is the worst Aston Villa manager in my lifetime. That's quite a statement considering he has some healthy competition. I'm happy we've finally employed a maanager who knows what he's doing.

[@SimBir08]

Recruiting Gerrard because of his success in Scotland was a terrible choice, anybody can win the SPL with Celtic or Rangers because it's literally a 2 team league and it doesn't make you a good manager. I knew he would fall on his face as soon as he met a proper challenge. Emery took us from relegation to 7th with basically the same team Gerrard had, that shows the gulf in class between them.

I don’t get what is so startling about this tbh, the exact same scenario had happened the year previous with Newcastle.

Yes it was the owners fault for hiring Garde but at that time no one else would have come to us. You can't praise the new owners for making a better hire. IT is much more than that. They put the club in a position to get someone like that.

[@SimBir08]

To be fair to Garde, Villa were going down that season whether he was in charge or Pep. It had been coming for about 4 seasons, we were escaping relegation by the odd point consistently. The squad was terrible, the club was close to falling apart. The best thing to happen to the club at that point in time was to get relegated, ship out loads of deadwood and rebuild.
