I would be happy with two points from those three.  Two draws against those teams will instill a fair bit of confidence I reckon.

Same here. 


same again

2 points would mean at the very least we only lost 1 game out of the 3, so its still a big ask, if we can sneak a win against one of them even better, but would snap your arm of for 2 points right now

The law of averages suggests it's about time we beat Manchester United and Arsenal again at VP. I can't honestly say I fancy us to get anything this weekend but Arsenal are definitely beatable without Van Persie. As for Manchester City, we've already beaten them only a few weeks ago. I'd be delighted with three points from the nine but will settle for two.

No way would I accept a draw and two defeats against anybody in advance for any Villa team ever.

If we play at the top of our game and without fear, there's no reason why we can't win a couple of these games.
Obviously with the Man U game we'll need a strong ref too

Think we'll lose to both Mancs and draw with Arsenal.

We're Aston Villa. I expect 9 points and 10 goals scored in our next three games.

I expect the annual defeat to Man U but a spirited victory over the Arse with a possible point at a frustrated City in between. 4 points.

I'm expecting us to lose v man u. Hoping for a draw at city and think we've a decent chance of a draw and at a push a win v arsenal. But would I take 2 pts? Unfortunately I think I would.

I think we can beat Arsenal  .  But a typical defeat against Manure and probably  a defeat at shitty .

It's a shame we aren't playing Arsenal first, at the moment I could see us nicking 3 off of them.  As it stands I think 2 minimum and 4 max, more than one for me please.

As a betting man if I was offered a spread on these I think it would be 1.8-2 points.
personally I think we'll lose the Mancs games and draw vs Arsenal. As th upside is so much bigger than the downside though i wouldnt take a point now.

Think we'll get one point and that will be the Arsenal game.

Essence!
