Houllier has the backing of club bosses
Gerard Houllier insists he still has the full support of Aston Villa owner Randy Lerner and chief executive Paul Faulkner.
Houllier has come under fire from supporters who called for him to be sacked after the recent 1-0 home defeat by Wolves. That left Villa just one point above the Barclays Premier League relegation zone.
But Houllier is adamant a close bond remains between himself, Lerner and Faulkner.
Houllier, whose side visit Everton on Saturday, said: "I speak to Randy Lerner on a regular basis and I speak also to Paul Faulkner a minimum of once a day.
"We are very close and very tight together. We know what we are going through. It is important to be in a club where there is a strong belief and the trust is there.
"I think their support for me is just as strong. In fact, I am convinced of that."
