SOUNDBITE: (English) Paul Lambert, Aston Villa manager (on injuries following the recent international break):

"(Philippe) Senderos. He is the one that's annoyed me the most because he went away with his national team and if you look at his record he has only played six minutes against West Ham for the month he has been out with us. He goes away with Switzerland and ends up pulling his calf in a training exercise. It's mis-management on my part from the FA at Switzerland. They should have been in dialogue and they should has saw his record in the first place that he hasn't played for a month. It is okay for them to go away and think 'we have only lost a centre-half' but we have lost a centre-half for a month again, who has been a vital part of the team."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Paul Lambert, Aston Villa manager:

"The same we do every game. We will go and set ourselves up to try and win, irrespective of Southampton with the way they have started and the way they have went about it but we are here to win a game. As much as they are. We will go and put the strongest team we canon the pitch and we will go out them and that's what we are going to try and do."
