"Of course in the meantime there's half a season to play, so you go where you potentially can, but Villa are competing with teams with squads where you've got five or six senior internationals on the bench. Villa don't have that, so I don't think they can win the title. For me, they'll be looking at Liverpool, Chelsea, Newcastle and Spurs, rather than Arsenal at the moment."
"Aston Villa go into this weekend's home game with Everton sitting third in the Premier League, after a highly impressive season that's even put them within touching distance of top spot. Villa won 12 of 13 Premier League games between late September and late December, to make it a three-way tussle at the top with Arsenal and Manchester City. A 4-1 loss at Arsenal and a draw at Crystal Palace mean that the Gunners are now six points clear, but Villa are still level on points with City, and eight ahead of fourth-placed Liverpool."
Aston Villa sit third in the Premier League after an impressive run that included 12 wins in 13 league games between late September and late December, placing them in a three-way tussle with Arsenal and Manchester City. Subsequent results include a 4-1 loss at Arsenal and a draw at Crystal Palace, leaving Arsenal six points clear while Villa remain level with City and eight ahead of fourth-placed Liverpool. Stan Collymore doubts Villa can win the title because of limited squad depth and suggests a realistic target is maintaining a top-four finish. The Premier League may gain an extra Champions League spot. Villa have been linked with Tammy Abraham and require midfield reinforcements.
