Carling Cup Draw Tonight
"It's all about winning our way through and the aim of the whole season has to be about winning a trophy. It's been far too long.
"This is something Sam is trying to put right now, and we feel the cups are a big chance for us to do that.
"We want a nice draw to start with and move on from there.
"The Carling Cup is something we are focusing on this season to get some silverware.
"Sam has a plan over the next few years, but he'll want a trophy in the cabinet as soon as possible.
"Every game this season is going to be massive for us and I think our home form has to be spot on.
"We feel like we should take maximum points at home games this season.
"I should hope against Aston Villa we can put out a performance like at Bolton.
"After Bolton it will be tough for me to get in the team but it's all about the club and fans.
"And if we can repeat performances like that we will do well this season."
