Some reasonably well informed comments there and some nice compliments too.
Good to see that they felt last season was a tough game as i also think that they were lucky to get the late goal in the home game. However, they're a tough side and we did pretty much match them in two games as well as playing them when they were heading into top gear.
I was really worried about Villa before Bolton, but i think that performance will have given us a lot of confidence. We're less predictable again and i think the football we play can and does open sides up.
Villa will be a very different prospect, they're a well organised, well drilled Steve Bruce side. Not exciting to watch, but with players that can, do and probably will change the game. We don't really have this in our locker.
I'm really interested to see how Bruce approaches it. I am guessing that he will set up two banks of 4 and make it hard to breakdown, but try to do us on the counter.
That improved Midfield of ours will be in for a real test. I can't wait, even if i think a point will be a really good result.
