Aston Villa is putting together a good offseason
It will be interesting to see if they can continue their success from last year. Personally I think they will do well, I just dontnsee them breaking into the top 6.
With Europa Conf League games as well, I’m unsure what to expect honestly. We’ve never had to deal with such a busy schedule so it could hurt our chances in the league.
This signing and others are not only about improving our 11, but moreso our depth to handle the increase in games
I think Emery has the talent to keep you guys up near the top 6, but the extra games definitely will create a few issues, especially if you go deep into the competition.... it is Emery after all.
Your league success will also depend on those around you and whether they rise to the occasion or drop the ball. Brighton will be a wildcard, but I think they drop out of the top 8. Chelsea should improve but won't make top 6 IMO. Liverpool should improve but their entirely new midfield is an unknown and I'm curious how long they take to adapt. Tottenham needs a defender and they could be a good team, but they also need goals from someone who isn't name Kane.
It should be interesting this year in the league.
