Aston Villa's defeat by Tottenham on Monday showed there is nothing wrong with their effort or application, but they are just not good enough.
Villa seem to lose their way far too easily in games and struggle to score goals, so keeping them up will be a massive job for new manager Remi Garde.
His appointment is a massive gamble, and this is a very difficult game to start with, especially with Manchester City's ability to exploit any space with their width and pace.
City were very impressive against Sevilla in the Champions League in midweek. They had a plan and had a real go, and anything like the same sort of performance will be too much for Villa.
Lawro's prediction: 0-2

To start with this is already a tough game for Villa, add that to the fact they're struggling and I can't see anything but a City win. Villa might probably keep it tight for a while but they are lacking the spark and City head into the game on the back of an unbelievable result against Sevilla. Remi Garde has a lot of work to do and there are a lot of hard games in front of Villa. They could soon be cut adrift, that's the worrying thing.

PAUL PREDICTS: 0-2

Worst fuckin thing I've ever shown my boy was that video when it had just hit YT (2yrs ago), Our lad hasn't stopped to this day with the "got no fans" & "you want some" on a daily basis.

It got so bad that when we went on holiday summer before last i told him i would take 1 Euro of his spends for every time he said one or other! The minute we checked in for flight home it started again the little git.

He plays the percentages game. Over the long run it works out well for him.
