I know there is no love lost between us and Villa but their next two games are at home to Burnley tonight and away to West Brom at the weekend.
Two wins for Villa by a big score and of course a big win for us against Newcastle would go down very well.
What a Great Christmas Present.
Hate rooting for Villa, but it's going to be easier to catch Burnley than it will be to catch them.
The live text says, how is this still 0-0. That's bound to mean Burnley score against the run of play now?
Villa very wasteful and Burnley look good again to be fair so really could go either way.
Villa have had 22 shots on goal and 7 on target. Hit the woodwork twice, at least. El Ghazi is having a mare. Grealish is the best player on the pitch by a country mile.

Yep, El Ghazi really letting the side down currently. Grealish is just too good for this side.......
Grealish should take the shots on himself, he passes to teammates who are hopeless, like El ghazi -can see Burnley getting at least a point from this though villa have dominated, but Burnley always dangerous on the break.
Ming's just missed a sitter 89th min. Still 0-0
Feels like Burnleys day to be honest. Ugh......really annoying that our survival is relying on other teams at the moment. As Burnley will continue to grind results out.
Grealish opened up a great chance for himself - but over the bar, only the keeper to beat!
Crikey, it's spreading. Mings, centre of the goal, seven yards out, and he manages to head the ball wide. Grealish has just blasted the ball over bar. 27 shots on goal.
Edit: Game over 0-0. Two points dropped for Villa and one point gained for Burnley.
Thanks Villa, woeful, spurned chances galore. Enough to win 3 or 4 games. A point to the Burnley lumps and we are back in the bottom 3 :016:
Back into bottom 3 with a bang. Really hard to see how we can get out of this with Brighton and Burnley looking pretty solid and us not really going for wins in games against bottom 5 clubs. |Love the tactics against the big clubs but we need to adapt to win these games like yesterday.
Have to say Grealish is a arrogant s... at times as his recent visit to his local magistrates illustrates, but you have to say he's one hell of a player
I see nothing in either Burnley or Brighton that makes them better than us.

Agree totally but we still need to beat them on our own patch. Paid Brighton far too much respect last night, and we got what we deserved from that game.

Better than us? Maybe not, but the ability to get points in tough fixtures and take points at home? I think I have. And now Sheffield 1 up against United......
Burnley really getting the rub of the green past 2 games. Basically been handed 4 points for free. Very frustrating.
