A perfect storm brewing at the Villa
£40-£50M annual savings required to stay clear of FFP.
Average wages of £30K/week with a host of expensive contracts on some not very good players.
And an owner who may be looking for the exit door.
Not good times for a cornerstone club of English football.

I hope Everton is his last club, but doubt it.
At least we finally got a win against him in March, the odious piece of slime.
And we didn't even have to boo him off, the Evertonian's did it for us.

Perhaps last Saturday's tough match against Leicester had drained a lot physically and emotionally from the team.
Certainly Leicester were not on top form last evening.
I thought Conte, who sounded like a performing parrot from the touch line, did a first class job tactically on Burnley.
