Now, Aston Villa has greatly strengthened their squad and is ready to show better results. Unfortunately, the start of their season was not successful, as they lost both first matches against Tottenham and Bournemouth. In general, they play very open football, what means that they have enough abilities to score a goal. However, fast football gives the opportunity to make mistakes in the defense. Lots of new players in the squad is a great chance to find new ways to succeed. On the other hand, players do not know each other’s abilities well. Therefore, not agreeing and not understanding each other can lead to more problems and poor quality football. In general, a team with a good roster should open up in the Premier League, just to do this they need more time and experience in English football.

Lots of talented players joined the club from Juventus, Barcelona, Manchester City, and other teams. Even more, they have one of the best goalkeepers in England Jordan Pickford. Confident play in defense and the absence of dangerous moments from their rivals thanks to the excellent defense. At the moment, their main task is to tighten the attack and the completion of dangerous moments. Everton has many chances to compete for a place in the Top 6 in the Premier League.
