THE Carling Cup draw against Manchester City is great for the club and, being a Aston Villa fan, I went to the Villa v City game on Sunday and did a bit of scouting.
City are a very good team, and their left-winger, Martin Petrov, is very quick. So, if I do play, I'll have to make sure I'm not chasing his heels.
It will obviously be a difficult game, but it's a great opportunity to play a Premier League team and, hopefully, for us to cause an upset.
It will be at Withdean, on a Tuesday, so, hopefully, the weather is bad to make it more of a leveller.
- At the Villa game, I was sitting with my dad and uncle, and Gabriel Agbonlahor was having a bad game. I was saying to them 'get him off, he's useless'.
But he then went and scored a hat-trick in seven minutes, and, like a typical fan, I'm singing his praises, saying he should be man of the match.
