Luke Young: Aston Villa face stern test at resurgent Sunderland
game goes,” he said.
“I enjoyed my time up there. But they beat Boro on their ground and we only drew at ours.”
Young admits that the Villa bandwagon has kept up a superb momentum despite them being far from their best.
“At the moment we just seem to be on a bit of a roll, winning games, no matter how they are coming,” he said.
“We are not playing particularly well but we are winning games, which is what all the top sides do. They pick up wins when they don’t play great football.
“At the minute, touch wood, we are doing that ourselves.
“We are exactly where we want to be and where we have been for the past few months.
“Our goal is to win every game we play and we are doing that more often than not.
“We seem to be tight at the back at the moment, which always gives you a chance.
“If we are doing our job at the back then we know our boys up front, with their attacking play, give us a great chance of nicking a few goals.
“If we do our job then we are more than likely going to score.”
■ Villa have confirmed that the home leg of their UEFA Cup last 32 game against CSKA Moscow will kick off at 7pm on Wednesday, February 18.
Kick-off time for the away leg on Thursday, February 26, is yet to be announced.
