Would we take a draw tomorrow? 08:02 - Feb 14 with 2527 viewsDubtractor

Obviously need wins, but villa are a tough nut to crack at home. So get another point on the board, then smash hapless spurs.

2 weeks have passed since that awful Southampton defeat, and I'm allowing myself a small bit of optimism again.

Come on lads, we can do this!

We seem to have an unlucky knack of playing teams just as they are on an upturn and I have the feeling it will be the same here. Thinks it’s going to be another long afternoon. A point is way beyond my expectations, so would snap your hand off for that.

In the position we are in, think we need to go all out for a win even if we end up losing the game as draws won’t be enough to keep us up.

Oh definitely – it's a really fiendish game and there is a fair chance we get absolutely whacked. But Villa do give you an opportunity or two, we need to make sure we take them. A point at one of the toughest venues would steady the ship very nicely at this stage.

If we can't get 3 points I will settle for one. Feel we are in the territory already of needing a surprise result so we don't get cut adrift.

Yes. And a win against Spurs and a draw at United. “Nowt bad with an away point”.

Given our last 4 games, if we can keep it to under 4 we'd have had a good game. If we get a point, a miracle, but that Villa side is something else and is only stronger now than when we last played them. If I am honest I think it will be a 4-5 nil jobby.

Yes. If we could match our points tally from earlier in the season for the next three that would be good.

Yes.

Villa have only lost once at home since August, and that was a much changed side for a EFL cup game.

Their games since August include Bayern, Man City & Juventus, it’s not an easy place to go and win at as they’ve all seen. We’re massive underdogs and I’d snap your arm off for a draw.

Yup, I would take that all day long! 4 points from Villa and Spuds would be a great return.

Villa have blown hot and cold this season, but sadly for us they're heating up again. Still wouldn't take a point though. We need to go for wins - 14 draws won't keep us up.

Between now and May, we'll get at least one 'surprise' win. Maybe it will come tomorrow.

Good chance we lose by 3 or 4 (or however many Villa get to before they stop trying too hard and see the game out in 1st gear) so a draw would be outstanding.

They're a different team at home than away - away they drop points to jabronis like Wolves, Spurs and Ipswich but are much more formidable on their own patch.

That said, they've had quite a few wins by a narrow margin - only one goal in it against Leicester and Southampton, and I know one gripe among Villa fans is that they don't finish games off when they should and make it unnecessarily nervy at times.

Never say never and all that but think this weekend is more about hoping the other teams around us fail to pick up points and ideally get a heavy beating.

Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.
