1-1, a frustrating shift.

Agreed, David.

I'd bring in albrighton for gabby. I think I'd play it safe and stick with the same back 4, even though it does mean playing with 4 centre halves. Has the look of a tight 1-1 to me. Sunderland's only away win was at Chelsea. I reckon we might just sneak this 2-1 with a late-ish winner. Heskey and Collins.

They've got 3 decent forwards who've scored goals this season, so we need to watch whichever two play. I have no idea who's fit for them or not though.

But if we keep up the same level as last time out, then we should get 3 points.

2-1 Villa
Heskey
Agbonlahor.

Don't agree, like Stephen Hawking, we're still totally incapable of clean sheets.

That said, 2-1 to us, both goals from Ashley.

I'm interested in seeing who's fit as we lost Gabby during the game and Heskey/Ashley were struggling. Emile really is key...

If we can i hope we go with the same line up as for the Chelsea game, we need to build a bit of consistency in the team. 3 points is a must from this game but Sunderland are tough opposition so it won't be easy.

2-1 to the Villa.

For me, it's not a case of 'can win', but 'must win'. Any other result could result in the loss of the positivity and momentum from the Chelsea game.

The same sort of effort and commitment as yesterday and we'll win.

2-1. Can't see us keeping a clean sheet, but reckon we'll nick it after the confidence boost of yesterday

2-2

We dont look like keeping clean sheets and I reckon a nervy crowd and defense will mean another late goal for the opposition.

1,432,351 - 0 to Villa. All the players will score, nobody will know how many as the scoreboard will have broken down with the input overload.
Excellent. Well considered and totally unbiased, I'm very pleased to say.
I agree.

Lets hope all these positive vibes coming from Villa Park from the last couple of days stay true. They showed yesterday we mean it but it must continue now till the end of the season.
We need a win, I don't care if its 1-0 as long as we win. We need to get a momentum going. Results first, a few new faces and then the quality football will follow......please!
