Touching? Those pure world-class numbers.

Wow I did not know that . And I remember Watkins from years back and Sheffield I believe

Yeah it is insane, I remember there was a time he was not considered good enough, but Emery has shown him he can become a force to be reckoned with

The same thing is happening to Mourinho right now too. Mourinho is so underrated.

@ekuniverse1 Mourinho is not underrated everyone knows he's one of the best of all time

@@liamjenkins244 Then why is he at Roma?

​@@ekuniverse1Well Roma is not a trophyless club like tottenham

@@ekuniverse1because he's old nobody wants an old manager

But we have to put up with endless plugs

Pythagoras in boots is really really good imo

Tifo is not serious with their analysis, too many unwanted jokes, an immature audience, and incomplete research on the topics of discussion. They're falling behind by a lot these days.

@@petar3120 yeah!

@@Coach-rq6jx Have been thinking the same thing. It would be okay if at least their research is actually thorough, but no.

Even to watch the Emery cam is great.. I Love him.. UTV

A very painful situation for the fans. Players trying to push out a coach makes for a very painful season.

Excuses and more excuses.

As a United's fan, it's true bro.

@@vinhnguyenthe4415 for United situation, it wasn't just about willingness to execute but u got to have right gameplan and decent back up plan at the start. This is Ten Hag's fault for not building the right gameplan at the start of this season and not have decent back up plan in place. Players like Bruno, Rashford are counter attacking machines at the end of the day. What's even more insulting is Ten Hag got it horribly wrong in Sancho and Antony. The actual reason why Sancho doing so well at Dortmund is the gameplan Sancho is in, specifically Lucien Favre's tactics Borussia Dortmund in 3 years (18/19 season to 20/21 season). btw I watched a lot of Bayern and Dortmund games so I fully understand Sancho's tactical profile

Just because of the squad depth I don’t think they will, for example if Watkins gets injured then they have absolutely no chance

They’re also playing european football too so that’s a lot of games

They’ll give it a good go but City and Arsenal will be tough to beat to the title. Maybe top 4

No they wont

Put the pipe down buddy and let's get back to reality. CITEH

"mid tier", we are second dude, it's called coaching, that's what "top tier" managers do, which is what Unai is.. Or has Unai exposed the over inflation of football.. Upthevilla

@themanwiththegoldengun1998 i clearly said financially. Read the comment again. Emrey did well with Villarreal and Sevilla but failed to meet expectations at 'bigger' clubs like PSG and Arsenal. Unless you (naively) think Villa is on the same level as City in terms of finance, then there's no reason to scoff at my comment.

@@austinedeclan10well made point.

Villa have the second wealthiest owners in the league after Newcastle (third if you consider City owned by the UAE rather than Sheikh Mansour). The only thing holding us back in terms of finance is revenue, as FFP regulation means that teams cannot spend like City and Chelsea have done in the past. This is why Chelsea's spending was such a big deal last January, with the accounting trick of amortisation allowing them to skirt FFP regulation. Even still, Villa are 8th in terms of squad value, 2m below Newcastlein 7th but 150m above Brighton in 9th. Add on the extra European spot and it's clear there's a Big 8 in the PL now with Villa among them. And Villa have a very demanding fanbase due to being one of the most successful English clubs in history. Add to that even more demanding owners who have came out on multiple occasions saying that they wanna secure Villa in the top 4. All we needed was someone good enough to put thigs together on the footballing side. Emery is so much more than "good enough" - he is literally *the guy*. The video above proves that.

@bacchic6676 Still Villa have not been expected to challenge anything in recent seasons. You've been a second division team within the last 10 years and you sold your captain and best play in a while to a 'super club' not too long ago. You're are one level below the 'super clubs'. This is not an insult or a knock against Villa. It simply makes what Villa have achieved the more impressive.

utd players are fkin shit really

We saw this against Palace exactly the same

When/where did he say that? Honestly as a Villa fan if you have a link for where he said that I would love to read/watch it.

I think he'll stay at Aston Villa for a few years at least

@@MindSurf248he’s talking nonsense mate don’t panic

Everton were rancid like villa and now are very well drilled and great to watch. Goes to show players can give it their all to the right man in charge. Dyche is underrated. He doesn't get the tools like most managers get. Yet gets the most out of players. Sometimes a manager is better at motivation while others are great at coaching. Unai coaching but maybe lacks motivation skills as he's known to fall out with players. Dyche a motivation guy. Loyal to a fault but won't get mentioned for his teams style in a positive way. But fair play to him and Everton you look good. His critics can piss off as far as im concerned. A good guy I'm sure those relegation scraps are well gone now for Everton. Good luck for the season. And I might also add ten point deduction was criminal. Especially when nothing was hidden and honesty was given on the offset. Chelsea and man city though are different circumstances should be penalised more as they actively hide and hire elite lawyers to make it go away. That lacks credibility. Everton despite the faults of the guys running the club was at least forthright in owning up to their slight misdeeds.

Pep Guardiola wrote this

@@FubukiZuniga You got me! lol

Whats going wrong? He's playing 6 CB's, 2 Wingers and 2 Strikers. Regardless of the system, sometimes they just aint the right players for the roles.

@@jimbobf2002 But it's 4 CBs, 1 Pivot, 1 Fullback, three wingers and a false nine. Lol

@@FubukiZuniga😂😂😂😂😂😂. You’re spot on!

Are you referriing to the game pre-season in America? It finished 3-3, and only then because Toon scored 2 offside goals (there was no VAR out there). It was a good game though. Such a shame the matches were all at such godawful times.

sure buddy

3-1-6 is a fairly common staggering like an evolved form of 3-2-5. 3-4-2-1 with two AMs is also quite common.

@@reaganknight if you believe it, that's ok. If you don't, that's ok too.

@@D3_XT3R it wasn't that common back then. You didn't see a lot of teams pushing a center back forward, or inverting the full backs, like you see today. I thought of this for Benfica, after seeing a game where a team played with no center backs due to injury, and it seemed like the best way for us to play, because we had only two CBs for a while. I'm really sorry that I can't find the picture I posted, because it was a thing of beauty.

That's what Glen Hoddle want to do with Rio Ferdinand before he got canned ​@@filipepires2462

yeah and winning by big scores ... against Villarreal and Napoli

The Brazilian box. Everything new is inspired by the old.

The players

Moving without the ball

@@adamzxm Yup, once the coaches (And there is a lot of world class coaches in the premier league) Has done what they can to prepare the teams its all up to the players to perform.

I use wyscout, it's a platform for scouts and analysts and you can rewatch basically every game

At least at spurs, it's because they aren't in position yet to attack, so it's better to make short passes to keep possession. It's a bit hard to see on camera though because they only focus on where the ball is at the moment.

many say Renato's Gremio got no close of Madrid's goal in 2017 at world club finals, but he fought prime CR7/full power Madrid without his entire middlefield, because Arthur, Maicon , Michel and Douglas were injured and Luan was playing with a painful problem on his feet. He even managed to block Gremios goal area and not concede spaces to Madrid.

he already did them

it was ragnick.

@@AWY-LO Ole as well

it's an unpopular opinion because it's already been disproved. You clearly haven't really been watching Villa. They have already performed like this for more than an entire calendar year - it's not a purple patch. Emery has already surpassed his form at Arsenal, and there's no signs of it slowing down. In fact, this couldn't be more different to Arsenal in terms of how much trust and buy-in and support he actually has. He's also surpassed Pep's win rate that he had in his first 50 games for City. Villa have had their best start to a season EVER, and every other season they had a start like this they went on to win the league. Already if you look at all the points gained in 2023 they are second only to Man City - who are now looking the weakest they've ever looked under Pep. And the thing is, all of this is now backed up by underlying numbers - not luck. It's not a sudden patch of form, it's a sustained and continuous show of real results backed up by real changes that are observable in the data. I'm not saying Villa will go on to win the league. But I am saying that they have every likelihood of maintaining solid form for the rest of the season, and every chance of finishing in the top 3.

@@user-ed7et3pb4o Actually you literally said what I said that they won't win the title and that they will be in the top 4 conversation, while disagreeing with me at the same time. The only thing is you say they will finish in the top 3. Nonetheless, if you are that confident let's have a bet. After reviewing the underlying numbers and the current squad depth, I'm willing to bet on my bottom buck that Villa won't finish in the top 3. My prediction is they will fight for 4th along with Newcastle and Tottenham. What is your prediction and we can revisit this comment at the end of the season

You used the word deserved and immediately lost all credibility. Deserved isnt something you can measure in football. Xg has screwed with peoples minds. You win draw or lose. Thats it.

Oh yeah. And the fact we arent that impressive in your opinion is even better. It means we are picking up wins while not firing on all cylinders. Imagine when we do click like you saw against Man City

@@TheBeliever82 You can play around with Semantics however you want, that's your prerogative. My only point to Villa fans is put your money where your mouth is....Are you willing to wager that Villa will win the title this season? If yes, then we can revisit this comment. If not, then you have not highlighted anything new about Villa that I did not highlight in my original comment , apart from reconfirming the fact that Villa fans are over sensitive..

Lol

Lmao even.

More fun facts more European cups and than the combined efforts of Arsenal - spurs and new castle combined

​@@ian9203maybe a GK who can also make good passing... 😂😂😂

Deserve. No mate. You deserved nothing as you didnt capitalise on your first half performance. Whereas Villa did by targetting Spurs weaknesses. And Son was caught offside just as much the season before at VP. If you cannot work out an offside trap then you werent unlucky, you were poor.

@@TheBeliever82 we'll see how thr season ends mate
