I remember them being above mid table but after they beat Tottenham theyre now fourth and only 2 points off the top of the league. That means that if they didn’t lose to Nottingham forest or Everton they would be first. Ik they really haven’t had difficult match ups but it’s still very impressive.
Emery’s PL record with Aston Villa so far is 9 loses, 5 draws, and 24 wins, for a total of 77 points in 38 matches. Numbers like that won’t win you the title, but they’ll easily get you in the top 4
