Obviously never a true guide to the season but are we allowed a little optimism having beaten Arsenal and Man U in pre season?

Beat Man Utd at Villa Park. History says we'll finish fourth now then.

Does that mean we'll win the League Cup and get to the FA Cup semi final as well? I love going to Wembley....

Feet firmly on ground, I remember Didier Six. Still nice though, it's been too long.

I think we beat them in the league cup a few years after the opening day "never win anything with kids" match.
1999 possibly?

Comment from Tony Daley who watched the game earlier. Very encouraging.

Was at Villa Park today to witness a high tempo and very energetic Villa performance! Players looked lean and fit. Very promising build up to the start of the season ⚽️👏🏾👏🏾
