60 points is realistic and achievable. That should give us a decent league placing on average. Plenty of game time for the likes of KKH, Archer, Tim, etc. That will enable us to see which areas need strengthening next summer (hopefully reduced). Could be break through years for a number of those lads and will show a pathway for future youngsters. I think Villa can steal on march on other clubs by becoming the best club to develop at with realistic opportunities to impress. Finally, developing the culture at the club. The players need to see that if they perform they play and that reputation guarantees nothing. That being the case, Archer, Bailey and Chambers would probably all be starting against Bournemouth.All achievable, all indicating further growth.

I’m not sure basing team selection on alphabetic order is the right way to go.

I get the feeling the club wants a top 8 finish from interviews - so maybe there is more business to be done
