Villa in Europe

Villa Park plays host to another night of European football tomorrow night and I am hoping that the Villa can maintain their 100% record.

It has been incredible to watch the claret and blue army showcase their talents on the European stage for the first time in seven years, and a win against Zilina on Thursday would make it three victories in three.

This is something I am confident of and having watched AC Milan's visit to Portsmouth last week, I am not under the firm belief that there really should be no fear going into any game in these group stages or beyond.

O'Neill has said we can win in, Barry too, Curtis Davies, Ashley young; the list goes on. I am going to the game and can't wait to experience the electric, European atmosphere live at Villa Park for the first time since the game against Hafnarfjordu.

Up the Villa.

What a day to start a blog...

Well this is my first post on my new blog, and what a day to do it. Only days after beating Dutch giants, Ajax, and only hours after disposing of Wigan Athletic. It really is a good time to be a Villa fan and was nice to see European football back at Villa Park this week.

A comfortable victory against Ajax made it even sweeter and after just seeing Villa come away from the JJB Stadium with a 4-0 victory, it makes me wonder exactly how far we can go as a team. The pundits are convinced we will finish 5th, and no higher. Villa fans are full of hope but then again, so are the Tigers. And what about the Uefa cup? With a bigger squad and the ability to perform on the higest stage, perhaps we can surprise a few people; break that top four? Go all the way in europe? It's possible, unless we get AC Milan that is!
