Sunderland mimicking Newcastle''s meltdown.Villa''s goal difference improving by the minute.

Villa are tonight showing what we lack, and the reason for our current position. Who do we have that can pick up the ball and make the opposition think ''oh dear''? No one.

Villa have about 5 quick attack minded players, who are given the licence to attack - this latter is my main issue - hughton has someone how sucked any inspiration and enthusiasm out of the team and we cannot put teams below us on the back foot. It''s absolutely pathetic.

the one saving grace might just be that west brom are in good form, and wigan also have to go to arsenal who wont be in a hurry to lose that champions league spot

Benteke hat trick...

How are we gonna handle this? I just cannot see us getting a thing.

Villa''s goal difference improving by the min . Can we just end this season asap

If Villa are so good, why dont they put teams to the sword every week and be at least a top 8 team - maybe the answer is they really aren''t that that good and the opposition tonight is reverting to form ....

If I were a Sunderland or Newcastle supporter I''d be very worried, VERY VERY worried.

wow now newcastle look like they may have to really worry there run in looks bad westham A QPR A

arsenal H maybe 1 point from that

[Robert Barnes 19]

Villa have been on an excellent run of late, 5 wins, 1 draw, 4 defeats (Arse, ManC, Lpool, ManU) in 10 games. Not a great time to play them.

[Redders Right Foot 22]

SJF - Mock all you want, but 1 draw will just about finish off our season and see us safe.

I hope you are right robert barnes but i really think we have run out of ideas and dont have the bottle for the fight. I think 2 points at best im afraid, villa will attack us and bring the game to us, brom are a very good team that we will do well to get a point from.

[Redders Right Foot 22]

sunderland have made villa look like barca tonight

Well done to the lads, 1-0 to us.

But matter at hand here, I''m feeling deflated and not looking forward to the weekend... at all.

[Robert Barnes 19]

6-1 oh my

Catastrophic defending from Sunderland. Any team playing this way would lose heavily in Premier League, regardless of the opposition.Shows there''s only so much a new manager can do with a struggling side. Di Canio''s honeymoon is well and truly over.

[Robert Barnes 19]

the only thing maybe going for us is villa maybe to confident now after this win lets hope they are to cocky and get brought back to reality sat 2-1 for us mark my words kamara 1 hoolahan 1

With what its done to their goal difference, this is as good as four points for Villa. If they play like this on Saturday, things could get very embarrassing...

[Baracouda 47]

Hopefully, this will knock the stuffing out of Wigan as well...

++++++++++++++++

I feel like it''s more of ''if we play more like sunderland on saturday''

Don''t worry chaps, Wigan still occupy the final place and they are 6 pts behind us. Can you really see Wigan getting 6pts before the end of the season ?I can''t.

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

Oh dear, Newcastle now in 17th position![:S]

[quote user="Javiers Deaf Translator"]SJF - Mock all you want, but 1 draw will just about finish off our season and see us safe.[/quote]Wigan probably won''t even make 38 points, and we will probably get at least a couple of points in our remaining home games.  We are safe as houses with two home games against mediocre sides to come.

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

I think we would have beaten Sunderland tonight.  The difference being, we wouldn''t have beaten them 6-1.  Hughton would never let the reigns off like that.  If by some chance we had made it to 3-1, Hughton would go defensive and we''d struggle to scrape the win 3-2.[:(]

Lambert has more talent - and much more attacking talent - in Villa''s team, so of course he would and CH would probably do as you say too. Either way it''s 3 points in the bag which is the only measurement that matters to a club.
