Villa are not out of the Champions League race yet, says O'Neill
Martin O'Neill has issued a rallying call in the hope of arresting the alarming slump which has damaged Aston Villa's Champions League hopes. [LNB]Determined: Martin O'Neill.[LNB]Villa have not won at Manchester United in the League in 26 years and the odds of an upset tomorrow are stacked against O'Neill's side as they head to Manchester on the back of a five-goal thumping at Anfield a fortnight ago. [LNB]Arsenal have leapfrogged Villa and now hold a three-point advantage but no one at Villa Park is throwing in the towel in the fight for fourth place. [LNB]'To anyone on the outside, this looks like a lost cause,' he said. 'But it's not a lost cause to me or the players. Absolutely it isn't. [LNB]'Arsenal have the momentum and we are dipping in form, our confidence has been dented. [LNB]'But we are still in this fight. The reason I know this is that I know it can happen. [LNB]'That's the first point. The second is that we all sat here three weeks ago and thought Manchester United had the title all wrapped up. [LNB]'By Sunday evening, we could find ourselves six points adrift of that fourth spot. But equally, we could be closer. We are still in the hunt.'[LNB] Defender Davies warns Villa to be prepared for United backlashALL THE BARCLAYS PREMIER LEAGUE TEAM NEWSASTON VILLA FC
