And obviously there's a really low correlation at this point in the season after one game, the table's going to look drastically different, but it does kind of become a little bit more stable, probably faster than you think.
So after 10 games, they they found that the table tends to be around seven
Seventy-seven percent of the way there, which is quite high.
Obviously there are outliers and teams can fall and rise pretty dramatically, but seventy-seven percent by ten games, eighty-seven percent by twenty games.
Whoa.
And then by round thirty you're looking at about ninety-four percent.
So
You know, you don't want to make too many judgments after ten games, but if you look at the table, it's gonna be pretty similar to how it is at the end of the season.
Don't make a
Yeah, massive challenge for them.
Um, I think Jacob mentioned a few key points there about players not quite being able to receive the ball under pressure as well as um Una Emery likes.
He likes his team to kind of draw the opposition in and then create the spaces to then counterattack.
They try to do that against Brighton, but Brighton was so well organized, uh really, really aggressive.
Uh we've got a a clip up on the screen here where we can see Brighton's two midfielders.
Asinayari and Pascal Gross pushing up really, really high on Villa's two kind of deepest midfielders well.
Um, Villa's goalkeeper has the ball, the rest of the Brighton team man for man, and they basically force Marco Bizot, the goalkeeper, to go long.
But in this particular game against um against Brighton, Villa's starting 11 wasn't really built for that.
They were missing Ollie Watkins, obviously, uh Morgan Rogers.
They weren't, you know, they had John McGinn.
I think John McGinn is actually quite a good pressure valve for Aston Villa because he can shield the ball really well.
