Aston Villa Sink to 19th After Forest Defeat
Emery's side have just one point from four Premier League games after losing 1-2 to Nottingham Forest, despite a €300m summer spending spree.
Aston Villa lost 1-2 at home to Nottingham Forest in round four of the Premier League and dropped to 19th and into the drop zone.
The result leaves Unai Emery's side with a single point from four matches. Only Coventry, without a point from three games, sit below them. Fulham also have one point but hold a better goal difference than Villa.
Their only win of the campaign came in the Champions League league phase, 3-2 against Club Brugge, and on 12 August they lost 1-2 to Paris Saint-Germain in the European Super Cup.
A poor start despite heavy summer investment. Villa paid 300.2 million euros for seven players priced at 25 million euros or more each. The most expensive was their own signing from Freiburg, worth 10 million euros.
Villa travel to Tottenham on 19 September for round five.
