Peter Drury said it best when Danny Welbeck put Arsenal into the lead at Goodison Park, “When Arsenal purr, they are still beautiful to behold.” Unfortunately for Arsenal, however, they’ve been sputtering more often than they’ve been purring.

This season has not been a great one for fans of Aston Villa. With 30 games played, they have only won a total of three and sit with a total of 16 points. Some pretty abysmal stuff. Even when they have managed to simply not lose, the Aston Villa players have looked resigned to their fate. With […]
