That\'s their sixth draw away from home this season.\"We didn\'t get out of the blocks as quickly as we\'d like to but we have to give Villa some credit\"Their two centre-halves, Dunne and Collins, were very good tonight.\" The Stoke boss is hopeful of having Peter Crouch available again soon after the former Tottenham man missed the game with a virus.
