I genuinely think, listening to Unai’s post game comments, and watching some recent games we’ve slipped into a negative mindset against decent teams. We need to address that fast.

We need to address that fast.Doesn’t help when the manager keeps banging on about 7 teams being better than us.
I wouldn't shed a tear if we got eliminated thurs. To hear that Champions league music at Villa Park is my dream and we are still in 4th it's still in our hands. Man Utd, Newcastle, probably Chelsea and spurs are going to strengthen next year whilst Villa talk about selling players to meet FFP. The time is now. Conf league is a big deal for the likes of West Ham but it's chicken feed for Villa. I prefer to concentrate on the premier. The conf is a unwanted distraction the longer we are in it the more probability of burn out games like spurs. If we were 11th in the prem I'd go all out for the conf but we are 4th still 8 points clear of Man Utd. I don't believe Villa would embarrass themselves in the champions league, you see man city hammer the likes of young boys and leipzig, we wouldn't be far off that the way we play. The premier league is the strongest league in europe. The offer of champions league football would bring better players to Villa. League should be the focus from now on.

This is our best chance in god knows how long to qualify.
Our success in the Conference League increases our chances of Champions League qualification. Conversely if we go out 5th is less likely to get a spot.
