Let's hope Big Eck has done his homework on this one. Get someone with a bit of pace running at Salgado, who seems to get slower as he gets ever older.  He's their weak link i reckon. I'll go for 2-1. N'Zogbia with them both.

Jimmy Anderson has predicted we'll win 2-0, so that's good enough for me.

I reckon Albrighton or Bannan will start, probably instead of Heskey. We'll win without conceding. Some people will still find a way to be unhappy about it.

 A scrappy 2-0 win which I will happily take.

Failure to get 3 points in this game will leave me extremely concerned for the rest of the season, despite me telling anyone who will listen that I'm totaly indifferent to football at all levels.

A win. And it will have to be. 1:0, Bent, of course.

Can't say I'm too excited about this game if I'm honest, got a typical VP boarless draw written all over it.

I'm going for a 1-0 Villa win but deep down I think we're going to lose 2-1 ( fingers crossed we wont! )

Just don't know about this season I'm not up for it at all not just the Villa mind, but with football in general.
