Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert is determined to guide his side back to form in the Premier League in his 100th game as the club's manager.
Villa have gone seven games without in a win in the top flight, losing six of those matches, and the Scot has admitted that everyone connected with the team has to be willing to put in the hard work to get their season on back on track.
Lambert told reporters: "I know we have to do a lot better, this club is too big a club and too good a club to keep doing what it has been doing. It has to get up there.
"You have to earn the right to get there and work your backside off to get there. It is not just going to come to you. You want to make this club vibrant very single week when you play home and away and you want to compete with everybody, including the top six.
"It is a great thing being manager of this club I don't think anyone should underestimate it. It is a magic football club and I am pretty sure I will be stronger for it that is for sure."
Lambert's men face Southampton in their Premier League clash later today.
