The NEW Aston Villa Team is SCARY

Hey lifelong Villa fan here! You did a GREAT job with this video... covered us really comprehensively and had a great summary of how our transfer window has gone. I'm super excited for this season especially for Onana, thought he was phenomenal in our last preseason game, I still think we could invest in a better CB alongside Joao Felix but maybe Konsa (and Mings!) coming back will help! Great video again UTV!!!

Aston Villa are a team that needs to be taken seriously next season. Under Unai Emery, they’ve been going from strength to strength and in a span of 18 months they went from being a mid table club in the Premier League to now playing champions league football and at one point last season they were actually in the title race and even though they didn’t win the league, finishing in the top 4 was enough for their season to be successful and they’re looking to build on it. One of the things that their team has under him as a proper identity because you know how they’re going to set up every time they play assuming everyone is fit. Going into next season, Manchester City and Arsenal are likely going to be battling it out for the premier league title once again, I wouldn’t be surprised if Villa make a surprising deep run for the title and that’s because they have an elite manager which is a key part of football, they’re not short of talent in their team: Ollie Watkins is an elite striker and was one of the leaders in combined goals and assists in the premier league last season and we saw his iconic game winning goal for England against the Netherlands at the EUROs, Emiliano Martinez has been known for his international career as at the Copa América he was excellent for Argentina yet again where he helped his country win another international title and he’s also a very good goalkeeper, John McGinn is a phenomenal workhouse in the team, they have a good backline and Leon Bailey is a great winger, they’ve had a good transfer window so far and have added more players to their team which is key in trying to balance out the premier league and champions league football. Despite losing Douglas Luiz to Juventus, their midfield looks strong after signing the likes of Ross Barkley and Amadou Onana, Onana is an elite CDM, many Everton fans know how good he is and he was one of the only positives for the Belgium national team at the EUROs and he had a great string of performances, he could be their Rodri and Rice, he’s not as good as them, but having a proper defensive midfielder elevates a team and he’s incredible when it comes to his physicality and strength, Barkley reignited his career at Luton Town last season and he’ll add more creativity to their team. Ian Maatsen is also another very good addition to their team at left back and even though he didn’t get enough opportunities at Chelsea, we all saw how good he was for Borussia Dortmund during their run to the champions league final last season on loan and given how great he is from an attacking perspective, he adds a lot of width and value to their team. Not to mention that they want to sign Joao Felix and hopefully under Emery, assuming they sign him he’s able to resurrect his career because he’s too talented of a player to be going from club to club without having any sort of consistency. When you factor in Watkins who has gotten better with every passing season, their defense and balanced midfield, a world class goalkeeper in Martinez who can come up with saves at any time during a game and Emery, they’re a dangerous team and we expect them to be in the top 4 once again assuming he’s able to cope with injuries and utilize the depth they have in their squad and we’ll see how they do in the champions league even though he would probably want to get relegated to the Europa League since that’s his favorite competition, but jokes aside, they can cause other teams problems in the premier league and I wouldn’t be shocked if they challenge for the title even if they won’t win the league.

Finally a non-Villa fan who actually understands what’s going at Villa

I'm happy with what Emery is doing with our team, he's building a team for now and the future and with his contract renewal Emery will develop these young players and find roles for them.

Aston Villa are the rising power in European football baby

One player you missed Morgan Rodger’s will have a big year this year

Great video, though i disagree about Kamara. He's very good on the ball, and easily one of our most important players.

Villa fan here. Good vid, thanks. Some people have mentioned Morgan Rodgers already. Watch this space: he'll be one of our standout players. I honestly don't know how we are going to pick a strongest midfield once everyone is back and fully fit. It's a crazy amount of talent we're assembling.

Been a Villa fan all my life (we've been poor for the vast majority of that) so it's cool that we get great videos talking about us now - like this one. More Villa content please ;)

Morgan will be Villa's star man this season.

Clearly this man has took time to research the past few years, brilliant video

Onana was playing for Everton so right now he doesn't seem great on the ball, he already has a good passing range and is only 22, I feel like he will progress a lot on that front under Emery

What about Morgan Rogers!?

Onana is already 4x the player (and person) Partey is btw

I got a Villa kit in a mystery football kit. At the time I was upset but last season changed my mind. They were such a fresh and fun team to watch.

Love the positivity great video UTV!

Cucho sends his regards

Onana - Kamara - McGinn Is a dangerous midfield

Emi Martinez in back is bad sight for attackers

Thanks to Douglas Lois Villa has so many money now. But surely without Luis, Midfield will not be as compact. Let's hope Onana can give his best.
