Recent years have not been terribly kind to Aston Villa football club. Sure, the team has avoided relegation from the English Premier League, but not by much. A 16th place finish in the 2011 2012 season was bettered only slightly by a 15th place position the following year. Aston Villa landed in 15th place again last season, but the club seems stronger this year. Indeed, Aston Villa is currently sitting just inside the Premier League top 10, and fans can celebrate that fact with a new Aston Villa training kit!

At Soccer Box, we have a full range of Aston Villa training gear to help you celebrate the club's current success-and stay super comfortable in the process! The Aston Villa training top 2014 2015 is a particularly stunning item, a Macron warm-up shirt in Aston Villa's trademark claret and blue color scheme.

The Current Season

Currently, Aston Villa is sitting on a record of 3 wins, 1 draw, and 3 losses. It's a solid, if unspectacular record, but one that is good enough to keep Aston Villa in the Premier League's top 10-at least for the time being.

More interesting than Aston Villa's win-draw-loss, record, though, are the clubs that are currently right next to it on the standings tablet. For instance, in 8th and 9th place, respectively, are Arsenal and Liverpool.

Arsenal and Liverpool are, of course, both regarded among the best clubs in all of England. Last season, Liverpool very nearly won the Premier League title, only to be edged out at the finish line by Manchester City. Arsenal, meanwhile, hasn't won a title in a decade, but also hasn't ended a season outside of the Premier League's top four in two decades.

In other words, it's an accomplishment in and of itself for the claret and blue hues of the Aston Villa training top 2014 2015 to be situated next to the red and white jerseys of Arsenal and Liverpool on the Premier League standings table.

Wins and Losses

At the four-week mark, Aston Villa was even higher on the Premier League standings table, having won three matches and only drawn one. Even more impressive, one of those victories came against Liverpool, showing that Aston Villa does have what it takes to beat top English teams. That fact alone is likely enough to win the club a few fans and sell some extra Aston Villa training kit products!

Since week four, Aston Villa has suffered three losses in a row, though none of them were huge surprises. Those matches-against Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City-have brought Aston Villa up against the best clubs in the Premier League.

The bad news is that Aston Villa left each match scoreless; the good news, though, is that now Aston Villa has faced the Premier League's best, the upcoming weeks will likely be easier for the club. Matches against Everton, Queens Park Rangers, Tottenham Hotspur, and West Ham United are all fixtures that the 2014 2015 version of the Aston Villa football club could very feasibly win.

A Long Time Coming

If Aston Villa manages to maintain its top 10 position in the Premier League throughout the rest of the season, then the Aston Villa training top 2014 2015 will become the first Aston Villa kit since 2011 to be associated with such a high finish.

Aston Villa's last placement in the upper half of the Premier League table came with the 2010 2011 season, when the club finished in 9th place. That followed a three-season streak of 6th place finishes for Aston Villa.

To find a year when Aston Villa finished in the Premier League's top five, you would have to go all the way back to 1996 1997. Even with a reasonably strong start to the 2014 2015 Premier League, it's unlikely that Aston Villa's return to the top five will come this year.

You never know, though. Perhaps Aston Villa will begin winning one match after the other in the coming weeks and ascend to a more competitive position on the Premier League table! You can support the club and cheer the player toward such an outcome with a new Aston Villa training kit, now available at Soccer Box.
