"Aston Villa's league record is shocking. Three points from their last 11 games. Shocking!"

Earlier we asked you who is to blame for Aston Villa's problems on the pitch.

Of those who voted, 39.5% said it's the players who need to take most responsibility for their current decline.

So there is something Villa's players have won this season...

Low-key start on the south coast, it's been a low-key few weeks for the Saints to be honest.

Shaky stuff at the back from Villa almost allows Saido Berahino a run in on their goal but the men in Claret just about sort it out. Tim Sherwood huddles in his dugout for now. He'll be up and at it soon enough.

Looks like a full house in Hull. Both sides in the relegation mixer still, three points tonight would do very nicely.

"The difference a few minutes before kick-off was startling. Aston Villa have been stood in a circle for a couple of minutes, shivering. It is bitterly cold at Villa Park. West Brom have been doing shuttle runs, zipping from one side to another keeping warm."

Game on at Villa Park, under way at St Mary's, up and running at the KC.

Here we go then. Who wants it?

"Tim Sherwood is looking for that 1% from somewhere in his team, he is looking for that and it could be the difference. One extra point could mean so much at the end of the season.

"He needs to get every bit of information about every single player. Sherwood wants to know all the capabilities of people who may have been out of favour in the past."

If it is true that a picture paints a thousand words, Tim Sherwood produces a work of airport fiction every game.

He cannot keep his emotions in check can he? Not even for a second.

Inspiring stuff on the touchline? Or a wreck of a man? Only time will tell.

He is a refreshing change though. There's nothing worse than seeing a manager react to a big goal by making notes or calling over his left-back for some tactical reshuffle. Enjoy it man!

Aston Villa v West Brom

Southampton v Palace

The Tigers have conceded 11 goals from outside the box this season, the most in the division.

Aston Villa have fired in the fewest shots on target in the Premier League this season (72) and have the lowest conversion rate (6.6%).

Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood: "From the word go we need to get the crowd on our side. We have been trying to make sure the lads hit the back of net as much as possible in training."

Asked about Charles N'Zogbia's inclusion, Sherwood added: "Hopefully he can nick us a goal."

Kick-off time closing in at a still empty Villa Park. Will the crowds return en masse to get behind their team in the run-in?

West Brom manager Tony Pulis: "There's been a change in form but we've still got 11 games to go. There's no complacency here because the Premier League is relentless.

"What we've done so far is very good and I'm pleased. But we are far from where we want to be."
