Newcastle manager John Carver makes it clear that his side must step up their game and end their poor run of form in order to avoid relegation. ESPN FC's Shaka Hislop explains Newcastle United are playing up to standards, which he feels comes down to ownership. With three rounds of games remaining in the Premier League season, Dale Johnson assesses the teams battling to avoid the drop with just two points separating five teams for 18th place. ASTON VILLA Position: 14th Points: 35 Remaining fixtures: West Ham (h), Southampton (a), Burnley (h) Aston Villa's position looks relatively comfortable after victory at home to Everton at the weekend.
