Villa wing ace Young spies Newcastle revenge

Aston Villa captain Ashley Young says he's eyeing revenge against Newcastle United.

The game against the Geordies is a revenge mission for Villa following a 6-0 early-season drubbing on Tyneside - and Young is confident of taking three points this time.

"It's not a nice feeling when you concede six goals the way we did," he said. "Now we want to set it straight and get a result. That's what everybody is looking to do," he told Villa's website.

"We realise it's going to be a tough game but we have to concentrate on putting on a good performance.

"Teams go through bright spells and bad patches and the game at Newcastle was a bad one. We had an early penalty and when it was missed it was a setback.

"It's one of those defeats you don't want to think about. You want to get it out of your memory. Now we just have to concentrate on getting three points from this game."
