Beat QPR, Spurs and Burnley, draw with West Ham and I am not sure about Southampton.
I'd take that. When did we last beat spurs ? 10 years ago ?
Jan 2008 on our patch, and then Sept 2008 on theirs.

At home it may have been '08, where Mellberg and Laursen scored and we beat them 2-1.

They've beat us the past three or four times at home, but have generally been awful at Villa Park over the years.

Was that when they got Jamie O'Hara to mark Laursen from a corner? I enjoyed that.

Yes it was. It didn't work out too well for little Jamie.

Nope. A few times in interviews he struck me as one of those players who thought he was better than he was. A touch of arrogance which wasn't warranted.

I certainly enjoyed Mellbergs Holte end celebration that evening.

What makes you unsure about Southampton? If Ads doesn't think we'll wipe the floor with them things really must be grim at the Villa.

Too right Ads. Most of my life Spurs have struggled at Villa Park but have been winning and scoring a lot of goals since 2008. Ditto, to a lesser degree Everton, who couldn't buy a win for most of the last 30 years but are now starting to show signs that they like Villa Park too.

I really hate the annual capitulation to Man U, Arsenal and Liverpool, but the fact that Spurs have changed the habit of a lifetime sticks in my craw.

I have never seen us win at QPR so would love to see us win on Monday. Redknapp often seems to do well against us so may have to hope for a draw.

Lose the first two, beat Southampton and draw both kit-stealers' matches.
