Villa to win the League - surely not?

January 29, 2009

Laugh at this if you want to but I do not think I am on my own when I say that Aston Villa could well be title challenges in the coming weeks. Martin O’Neil’s side are playing with an incredible amount of confidence and flair at the moment and more important than any of that, the are winning football matches.

With both Arsenal and Liverpool slipping up in the week, the door is definitely half open for Villa to mount a serious bid for a Champions League place at the very least. They are five points clear of Arsenal who remain in fifth place, and looking towards the summit, Villa are only three points behind the leaders Manchester United.

It would take a brave man to bet against Fergie claiming his third title in a row, but Villa do have a chance and to write them off could be very dangerous indeed. This is something which they are thriving from at the moment – many people do not see Villa staying in their current position let alone furthering it – yet week in week out they are proving people wrong.

I think it is a good thing for the Big four to be broke and may even have a pound or two on Villa winning the league – just in case!
