I think i'd keep it unchanged unless there are injuries?

Obviously bringing Martinez and Cash back in though !

If we win tonight the season is actually becoming sexy.

We would be well on course for Europe.

Four wins from five would be unreal.

I do think we will win tonight.

I've just got a good feeling that it will be a memorable game.

More importantly the next 3 after tonight are all decent fixtures so 18-19 points from Emery's first 8 games wouldn't be beyond us and that's the sort of form that builds belief and confidence, just like the Smith run did in the promotion season.

I did notice but I don't like these winnable games runs we get. Because we usually find that they weren't very winnable and we end up losing most of them.

Maybe we won't though.

I know Olsen did alright on Sunday and demonstrated that he might be an ok second choice keeper after all, but please bring Emi back in for this one.

Also, we are 100% not winning a home game against a team in the bottom three after beating a top six team away. It would be the most un-Villa thing ever. We'll obviously drop points. Probably a 0-1 defeat to a late goal by an out of form Diego Costa. I'm a miserable person.

First visit to VP for me in over a year, plus I'm thoroughly outnumbered by wanky wanderfers fans at work, so just win please Villa.

Emi in goal, Cash in for SJM, otherwise unchanged from Spurs.
