I think we are the best team in the league. It sounds crazy to say that and I’m probably way off, but at the moment I think it’s true. We’ve had 1.5 bad games against Leeds and Southampton and should have won all of the others relatively comfortably had we taken the chances. I used to watch bits of other teams like Liverpool and think they play a totally different sport to us, but now I often think ‘they’re not as good as the Villa’. The transformation has been quite remarkable, so remarkable that it’s hard to comprehend really. They dominate, they counter attack at pace, and there is always somebody running at the opposition. If it’s not Grealish, it’s Watkins, or El Ghazi, and Traore has started to play well. And we haven’t seen Barkley, Grealish and Traore together yet. Of course, as a Villa fan you always expect the worst and I’m sure we will lose the next two now I’ve said the above. But in my 30 years of going I’m not sure we’ve had a team that plays as well as this one.
