Everton FC midfielder Leon Osman wary of the Aston Villa backlash
Leon Osman[LNB]LEON OSMAN has warned his Everton team-mates to be wary of an Aston Villa backlash.[LNB]The Toffees travel to Villa Park on Sunday in search of their first Premier League win of the season, but face opponents still smarting after their 6-0 thrashing last Sunday and last night's Europa League exit.[LNB]Villa are in disarray after the exits of manager Martin O'Neill and midfielder James Milner, but Osman stressed the blues still face a tough test from a side that finished sixth last season.[LNB]The 29-year-old said: 'That results they had this week probably makes it more difficult for us.[LNB] 'They will be a bit wounded and will want to come out and show it was a one-off. We are going in there confident and hopefully we can come away with the right result. It has not been the perfect start so the sooner we put that right the better.'[LNB]Osman admitted the Toffees have not had the perfect start to the season, but said the competition for places in the current squad will ensure nobody loses heart.[LNB]He said: 'Any team just wants to get that first win under their belts. We've done that now so we can look onwards and push on.[LNB]'The Blackburn and Wolves results were frustrating but the season is still young - we are not losing our heads at the minute.
