Barry: Villa want Europe

Aston Villa midfielder Gareth Barry believes that the club will qualify for European football, and believes that the club has more than enough quality to do so this season.

"There is no doubt that if we can put together a finish like we did last season, then the European spots are definitely up there for grabs," he said.

"We had a great run to finish off, after we had been hovering just above the bottom part of the table, and that gave us a lot of confidence.

"Hopefully we can repeat that and, if we do, we will finish high up the table."
