Forget Vassell, Andrew Cole is the real danger

Vassell said of Cole ?It seems that whenever he is out of the team we go through a little dip. I think we are a better team when Andy?s there. His experience speaks for itself and so does his goal record.?

Aston Villa are without Milan Baros, Wilfred Bouma and Lee Hendrie. It is thought Aaron Hughes may make the match but nothing is yet confirmed.

Obviously Darius Vassell will be going all out to prove his worth since his move north but I'm not convinced he'll be a threat, but I've been wrong already this season. I'd watch for his runs and passing but that's about it.

I'm predicting a draw tonight but as I've said above a defeat should see David O'Leary getting the sack or if the man has any self respect left he'll do the decent thing and resign.
