Five Points above Everton with a game in hand. If they catch us we don't deserve it.

Indeed

Worth noting that half of our remaining games are against teams currently in the bottom five. Whether that's a good or bad thing for us is too hard to judge, really. Maybe a few more games against the likes of Sunderland and Fulham, neither experiencing massive jeopardy, would have been more desirable

Moyes is the classic example of managers being horses for courses. He's never looked remotely as good anywhere else other than Everton. They are exactly the right type of club for hon, just like Unai is for Villa and, say, Frank was for Brentford. Trouble sets on when you're not at the right club for whatever works elsewhere
Hopefully Unai's staying for the long haul and he's planning to build a dynasty at the Villa.

Moyes did well at West Ham as well. Just West Ham fans didn't think he fitted but back to back to back European qualifications for them.

He probably gave Preston their best time since the '50s

He was always up against it with fans of a club that won the World Cup. And he didn’t play the West Ham way. Whatever the fuck that is.

Yanited drop a couple of points, Liverpool lose, Chelsea losing. Villa are home to a bottom three club. Hope i'm wrong but we know how this usually works. Lets hope tomorrow is different.

Yep. Compare and contrast with the bombscare at the other end.

Sanchez isn't.
