NEW manager Remi Garde says he has not signed up to prepare Aston Villa for the drop.
Garde was appointed as Tim Sherwood's successor on Monday, then watched Villa slip to their seventh straight defeat with a 3-1 loss at Tottenham.
He takes control for the first time for Sunday's visit of leaders Manchester City, with Villa bottom of the Premier League but former Arsenal midfielder Garde said: "I am confident, it's 28 games to go. If we start winning things will change.
"Now it's difficult but we can do it. I am not coming to prepare for next season in a lower division.
"I think Borussia Monchengladbach started with five defeats in a row and then they had six wins in a row. In football you never know.
"When, mathematically, it's done you shake hands and it's finished."
