I've got a good feeling about this coming season. Dunno what we'll do, but the top end of the Premier League is getting an awful lot more congested now ... at least one team from Manc City, Manc United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs, Us, Chelsea, and Newcastle is going to end up with no European football in 2024/5.
Bit like last season then, Spurs and Chelsea will struggle , Liverpool are on a downward trajectory in my opinion. Poch is overhyped nothing. The Aussie at Spurs needs armbands

Being of a certain age, I can't help but bring to mind that the last manager to join us part way through a season and have the kind of immediate impact that Unai Emery had last season was Tommy Docherty, in 1968/69. Promotion the next season we then all believed was but a formality. That wasn't quite how it worked out of course, as that next season we were relegated (to the old third division) - following, as it happened, a pre-season that was spent mainly on tour in the States. Just saying.

It would be great to find a way to 5th. But I think 6th is very achievable. Going from UECL to UEL is good progress.

Looking at the teams we should in theory be competing with for places, I think we've had a more impressive transfer window than the rest?

Liverpool have maybe made the most exciting signings, with MacAlister and Szoboszlai, but they're losing players to Saudi clubs too. Newcastle have signed 2 players but with Champions League to contend with is that enough? Mount and Onana at ManU seem solid rather than exciting, Spurs signed Madison but probably going to lose Kane.

There's still loads of time obviously for them to add more, but as things stand I think we could sign nobody else and still say it was one of the best windows we've had.

Agree with this, making our debut in the Champions League in the anniversary season would be nice though.

The Union Berlin trajectory in Germany, or similar. Promoted, within a couple of years the Europa Conference, year after Europa League, last season qualified for champions league. Add a cup in there next season and it would be amazing!

Not being greedy but the FA Cup, The Conference League Trophy and top 10 will make me very happy.

I'll agree with that but the top 6 plus both trophies would be very nice!

Win the conference league and top 6 will do for me. (F A Cup would be a nice bonus)

I think Villa will finish 2nd this year and win the Conference League.
