Champions league for Aston Villa?
Well, the pundits on Match of the Day aren't convinced yet, but with every result that goes out way, it's looking more likely.
I hope that your owner does not overspend if you guys qualify for the CL. Or you will be just like us in a few years.
Well, the simple facts of the matter are that out owner has a lot of money to back him up, he has supreme confidence in our manager, who studied under the late, great Brian Clough and that we are going to buy quality players - Ashley Young now looks like a bargain at £9.75m seems like a bargain now, considering how much Man Utd paid for Christiano Ronaldo, or how much Chelsea paid for the likes of Didier Drogba, for example.
We've got a good youth setup and we can afford to let the players mature in our lower teams before making the jump into the big time, like Agbonlahor and Delfouneso. We've still got work to do to make it to the Champions League, but we're making steps in the right direction, considering we're only 5 points behind pace setters Liverpool, which is the real achievement after 21 of 38 games.
