alanabit, I wouldn't be too worried.

As a staunch villa supporter, I would have given us a chance with a full fit team, which is what we need against Man City.

On paper, Villa's team looks very bitty.

Aston Villa make eight changes from the team that beat Blackburn. Fabian Delph deputises for the left-back for Nathan Baker who is out with concussion. Ciaran Clark is at centre-back with James Collins and Carlos Cuellar missing.

Man City: Hart, Richards, Boateng, Lescott, Zabaleta, Barry, Vieira, Toure Yaya, Kolarov, Silva, Balotelli.

Subs: Taylor, Michael Johnson, Dzeko, Jo, Tevez, Boyata, Wabara.

Aston Villa: Friedel, Herd, Clark, Dunne, Delph, Agbonlahor, Petrov, Bradley, Bannan, Heskey, Delfouneso.

Subs: Marshall, Downing, Ashley Young, Pires, Albrighton, Reo-Coker, Walker.

Up the Villa. Time to go and watch it on ITV.
