Uefa spot fine for Villa - Taylor

Uefa spot fine for Villa - Taylor
Graham Taylor thinks Villa may be better off qualifying for the Uefa Cup (Getty) Former Aston Villa boss Graham Taylor thinks qualifying for the Champions League may not be in the best interests of his old club.Villa are currently sixth in the Premier League, but are just three points behind fourth-placed Everton.

But Taylor told BBC WM: "If they were to do it then the disappointment and expectancy might work against them."It might be better for the long term to get in the Uefa Cup and build for the future," he added.Martin's doing a fine job but we shouldn't get too expectant over the top four. Under Taylor's guidance, Villa finished second in the old First Division in 1990.

But he thinks they still have a bit of work to do to be genuine contenders to threaten the Premier League's elite."Martin O'Neill tends to be a builder." added Taylor. "He's doing a fine job but we shouldn't get too expectant over the top four. But it is going along very nicely at the moment."

Well that would do for starters. With promises today that Lerner is now willing to spend cash, then this Summer may not be as frustrating as the other 2 transfer windows.
