So we need to go from winning 1 game in 17, or none in 16, to winning 1 every 2 games for the rest of the season. Hmmm.

If we could somehow get a prolific striker it could turn losses into draws, or draws into wins.Go on admit it. You really are Remi Garde aren't you!
Remi Garde avoiding relegation with Aston Villa would be up there with Harry HoudiniVilla are rooted to the bottom of the Premier League, and survival is looking more and more like mission impossibleBy John Percy8:00PM GMT 24 Dec 2015Remi Garde declared he was not "the magic man" on the day of his appointment - but he has been unable to make Aston Villa's problems disappear.Villa are rooted to the bottom of the Premier League, Garde is yet to win since taking over and navigating a route to survival seems to be Mission Impossible.Not many people outside of B6 believe there is any chance that Villa can defy history by somehow scrambling to safety, with the icy fingers of relegation clawing away at their necks.But Garde is continuing to talk defiantly - he has no other option - and the next three games are likely to tell us everything we need to know about whether they can achieve the Great EscapeThe visit of West Ham on Boxing Day, plus trips to Norwich and Sunderland, do not get any bigger and surely Villa need to win at least two of them to move closer towards the dreaded dotted line.If they can achieve that, Garde's hopes of strengthening his squad will be infinitely better. If their position appears as grim as it does today, however, which players with their heads screwed on will view a move to Villa as a step forward?Last week chief executive Tom Fox bravely insisted that Villa's size, reputation and infrastructure sells itself and despite the club's miserable position, there will be no shortage of players wanting to join.It is difficult to share his optimism, however. Even players in the Championship will be wary of moving there for the threat of returning to the division in under six months is all too real.Loan players could be an option, but chairman Randy Lerner is notoriously opposed to them and would prefer to bring in permanent signings.Villa have already begun mapping out their strategy for the January window, with Everton striker Steven Naismith, Gent's Laurent Depoitre and Leicester's Swiss international Gokhan Inler all on the radar.That strategy will only appear realistic if Villa give themselves a good chance of extracting themselves from the pit of slurry they are currently sitting in.Garde agrees with Fox, claiming that Villa still remains a big pull to players across Europe."Even at the bottom of the table Aston Villa is still attractive for some players. They know we are not relegated yet and hopefully before the opening of the transfer window our situation will be a little bit better. Many players are interested in coming to England and joining Villa," he said."It depends on the mentality of the player. As you can imagine some loans would be very helpful for the club but also for the player."For example if some players want to play in the Euros at the end of the season but are maybe not getting enough games at their clubs, maybe it's a good deal for both."In the next few weeks the picture will be clearer - but if Garde does pull off an improbable escape, it will be up there with Harry Houdini.
Just though I’d pop in to depress you all again.Really wanted us to win today. Another record surpassed….Longest league run without winning14 - 14/08/2015-and counting13 - 24/03/2012-02/09/201212 - 13/12/2014-28/02/201512 - 27/12/1986-25/03/198712 - 10/11/1973-02/02/197411 - 19/11/2006-13/01/200711 - 28/03/1967-23/08/196711 - 23/03/1963-04/05/196311 - 29/08/1955-22/10/1955
