Selling JJ who was desperate to stay at Villa put some noses out at the seasons start. Emery in his after match finally i believe is ready to make changes, he looked worried as i've never seen him before.
Notice that myself when the camera pans on him during games, it's the look of how do I fix this

Start by trying something different. I don’t mean that to be churlish, but it’s been evident for weeks that with the players we do have the current approach doesn’t suit.

I'm still furious at the Chelsea capitulation, and the Wolves loss.  I'm also left wondering how can we possibly turn this around to ensure we get the CL football next season that looked so likely a month ago.

But I also remember feeling this way in mid-September, when we'd had a terrible opening month of the season, with just three points and a solitary goal to our opening 5 league games.  I was left wondering, 'has Unai lost it'?

Then Unai took us on one of the best runs in the club's history.

If our form doesn't improve, and we end the season having looked like a lower-mid table side from Feb onwards, then sure, questions will need to be asked.  But for now, I'm going to continue treating this like nothing more than a blip, and believe that Unai can string a few results together and get us back on track.

If you'd have told me after the draw with Sunderland at the end of Sept, to ignore the table, and we'll be in 4th with a decent shot at Champions League football as we enter March, I'd have snapped your hand off.

We're in a tough period, but we're still IN the fight.  This isn't over yet.
