I'm going and as it stands with Cesc, Clichy ect out I will be happy with a point. But I always think the worst then I don't get to down when we dont win.

I think 6 points from the next 3 games would be a good result. I'm going for us losing on Saturday (i obviously don't want it but i think it is relaistic) but I think we will batter Newcastle and Boro. I think that should mean we are 3 points ahead without the game in hand. A draw on saturday would be a bonus.

is Cesc definitely out?

I hope we do it. This is a vital game in our season. If we don"t win, it is so much more of a loss then 1 or 3 points it will dent our confidence and eventually our title hopes.

I think it will be a tough game, and hope we get the result we need, after the result in mid week, i fear the December of Dis-Content at the Arse,,,,,,, Hope i am wrong,,,,, and proved so...

Incidently i will be going to Villa and have a ticket for Boro, which i cannot make, any takers? face value £24

Indeed I will be at Villa. I believe it isnt a must win game but losing up there will damage us mentally after such a comprehensive loss in Spain. Personally though I think we will win. It will be a tough game and if its anything like the fixture last year it wont be even slightly pretty but its about getting the job done and i think we will. 1-0 to the Arse

But after defeats we usually react badly. It might strike again.

Have faith Justin!

This will be a completely different game with us fielding a much stronger side and Villa are yes better than they have been for a while but not all that!

O'Neill ain't the resurrection like the media make out!

:P

6 points from the next 3 games..We should be looking for a minimum SEVEN points out of nine.I think the worst we should be looking at is a draw at Villa.If we are looking to win the league we must beat poor teams like Newcastle and Boro even though they are away games.

By the way i think we will win at Villa if we play 4-4-2 With either Theo or Bendtner partnering Ade and not 4-5-1 with Ade isolated upfront

Fuck me. Just watching back some highlights of games at Villa Park in recent years, and those Brummies moan all the fucking time about refereeing decisions! I'd expect a bit more of that tomorrow. I'm really not looking forward to tomorrow, truth be told...

With Frank Carson in goal and Zac Knight(Villa"s answer to Swiss Phil) at centre half. I say Attack attack attack
