So, after a couple of weeks when the green shoots of optimism had begun to show through, we’re back to wondering what the future holds and what level the Villa genuinely are at.

That is it, in a nutshell.

We have no way of knowing, because we are boldly going where no man(ager) has gone before.

In fairness to PL, he seems convinced that he can pull it off, and so far he is on course, yesterday's debacle notwithstanding.

I'm not sure the Chelsea performance was better than Arsenal away or Liverpool away last season. We needed a harsh sending-off to help us win it.  One of the better home performances since before McLeish certainly, though more by virtue of the majority of  VP games being various shades of unconvincing, inept or mediocre over the last couple of years.

Chelsea are a lot better than Liverpool last season and a fair bit better than Arsenal this season.
