There's a big sad asterisk next to Manchester City's ostensibly exciting 6-1 victory over Norwich yesterday, and that asterisk is called Aston Villa. Never (in recent memory, at least) a gigantically exciting team, Villa have been almost hypnotically average this season. They've won less games than everyone except Wolves, have scored fewer goals than Bolton, Blackburn and QPR and have drawn more games (14) than any other team in the league. Urgh. Draws. Who likes draws? They are all that stand in Manchester United's way as they attempt to re-establish a five point lead at the top of the table and force the nation to tone down its title-race expectations from "lukewarm" to "what's happening in F1 this season?"
