Kings or kingmakers? Villa entering decisive run

Unfazed by external pressure, Emery refuses to declare Villa's title race potential, but recent stats show significant progress with only one defeat since August. Villa's momentum and strength were evident in a recent 3-2 win over West Ham, reflecting their ambition and challenge in Europe and the Premier League. Despite a rough start to the season, a squad meeting and dedication have propelled Villa to six straight top-flight victories.
