At Aston Villa last week, again, I could have brought him on and you have the hesitation to do it – but you do not want him to be a little bit over-ruled by the intensity of the game.
There’s very serious interest from Aston Villa and Chievo
As soon as you score you think the game might be over and might get three points but if you score a second goal - this season it hasn't been the case. We surrendered a 1-0 win many times and even lost some points, like against Aston Villa.
Cahill has not been at his best this season with all the speculation but when we first signed him for a knockdown £5 million from Aston Villa (what must Martin O’Neill think now?) you knew he was going to play for England one day ... I still think he will captain the England team! He is a very good play...
There are certainly a number of fans who are still not too happy with the manager. So one bad performance and that was going to happen, which is wrong really. I think the manager has come in and done a great job and some of the fans have to realise that he’s here to help Aston Villa. We are working trem...
He was enjoying outstanding success as Wales team manager and our thoughts are also with those Welsh internationals on duty today for both Swansea City and Aston Villa
We believe that being in Europe is psychologically important. Randy wants it back. I believe it's do-able. Aston Villa is a great club and should be up there challenging at the top of the league and we should be there pushing for Europe. 'It should always be the goal for a great club like this.
I have let down my family, my club, the supporters of Aston Villa, all of the people who have helped me to get to this stage in my football career and I have let down myself. I'm really sorry.
But I think Brendan, Paul and myself aren't daft either. We know that we are looking at the bottom three and aiming to finish above that. I think from Aston Villa (8th) down, everyone's in it. It's going to be up and down all season and it is probably the most even division it has been for a long while,...
I'd not even thought about it - maybe that gives an indication of the club's mentality. I am very confident we can keep players at Aston Villa.
Bolton put a lot of effort into getting Owen Coyle from Burnley, when he was hailed as the new Bill Shankly ... Roberto Martinez chose to turn down Aston Villa in the summer to stay at Wigan and Blackburn’s owners sacked Sam Allardyce to promote Steve Kean. Nobody wants egg on their faces.
Newcastle are currently in 4th place and a full 7 points about 8th placed Aston Villa, with a much better goal difference too.
It was a good performance from us and there was plenty there that we can take into the Aston Villa game next weekend
I didn't receive any apology over the tackle (from Hutton). They (Aston Villa) obviously thought he'd done nothing wrong. There's nothing for him to apologise for.
There's us, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea - it looks like it could be any one from four. And Aston Villa certainly look like they will be the one pushing to get into that top group.
If the players don't stay, we could end up like Aston Villa ... Not long ago, they were maybe two or three players away from becoming a top team. They didn't buy them and they didn't keep the ones who were already there and since that time, they have taken a few steps back.
