I remember them being above mid table but after they beat Tottenham theyre now fourth and only 2 points off the top of the league. That means that if they didn’t lose to Nottingham forest or Everton they would be first. Ik they really haven’t had difficult match ups but it’s still very impressive.

    Both teams had a pre-season tournament in the states. Looked decent enough then.

    Part of the reason they smashed us is our whole left side was out injured except Mings, who got a season ending injury at the start of that game. No Monero, Ramsay, Buendia or Mings.

      To be fair though, villa looked really tired in the second halves of those games in the states as well, at least the ones I watched.
