I'd usually be the same with Villa yes. And yes, if you guarantee me we'll win every game 1-0, I'd take real pride in whatever football we're playing and the fact no one could stop us.
I saw this season as a real chance to try and be more expansive though. We had the squad to win the league and have got to the playoff final without looking much good most of the time IMO.
If we go to the PL, it's all a different kettle of fish. We won't be in a position to try anything other than grind results out, which is why I wanted this season to be different.
