A 2-2 draw with Brentford. Could've been worse if it wasn't for Zion Suzuki. Could've been better if it wasn't for our missed chances. John McGinn's weird rebounds are back and so is our porous defence. We talk about Emery prioritising his structure over points and the injury crisis that can no longer be put down to bad luck. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A first win of the season even priced in the fact that Aston Villa were dead certs to hand Spurs their first goals of the season. Another victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and another Emi Buendia cracker. Suzuki's jib continues to impress and Unai Emery has us believing again going into an international break. Beyonce, your boys took one hell of a beating. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Guess who scored at Villa Park? That's right - the guy who hasn't scored in nine years. Aston Villa fall again, this time to Nottingham Forest. There's a goal at least. There's excitement at least, especially with Ibrahim Mbaye. But it's another bad day at the office and Unai Emery's decision to bring on Tammy Abraham at half time raises eyebrows. Hosted on Acast.

Aston Villa's first point of the season doesn't deliver a goal, but we do have a shot on target to talk about. We even have sitters to marvel at. And, more seriously, we have a baller in goals. We discuss a better performance but what we're missing. The changes from the sideline. And the sitters, again. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Arsenal beat Aston Villa. But it's a new Aston Villa. They don't each other, yet. They're not all playing, yet. And, YES, we haven't had a shot on target but there are signs - there are signs! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The worst debut ever? Joao Gomes went from a hero to a liability very quickly in Brighton as a strikerless Villa were ran over the top of. Ollie Watkins didn't show and we discuss the 4-0 defeat, the transfers and where do we go now? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

PSG outplayed by Aston Villa again? PSG win again, sure, but it was only a friendly now that we lost, right? Madjo, Hemings, McGinn, Buendia - wow. Super Cup podcast is here and the new season is upon us. We are o back. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Aston Villa are Europa League champions. We have montages and poems and the whole kit and caboodle to mark the occasion. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Champions League baby! What a way to end the league season (effectively) and send us into a European final. These boys are heroes. The squad gets weaker each year and they still scale new heights. Even Austin MacPhee is getting praise again. But Liverpool are a mess and perhaps MacAllister sums that up right now. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

That was special. That was joyous. That was football and Aston Villa at its best and we deserved it. This team deserved it. And under Unai Emery, Villa are headed to their first European final in 44 years after dismantling Nottingham Forest. We talk about how good that was and just how bad it got for Forest. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It all comes down to this. We could be in for the greatest three weeks ever. Or quite possibly some of the worst. We haven't set it up well with an all-time stinker against Spurs so how else could we mark it but a full show dedicated to WhatsApp Whinges. Hosted on Acast.

The most unnecessary of defeats. Villa lose to Nottingham Forest thanks to Lucas Digne's moment of madness. Time for some real talk and emphasise this is a European semi-final. How we're fixed for next week. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We're back. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Liam talks about Rocky. It's not what Conán wants to hear. Things get heated over Ollie Watkins via Rocky III and the original instalment. We discuss a point away to Forest which might look good later, which might've looked good before but it doesn't feel great right now. Liam says we can forget about Chelsea but has Morgan Rogers forgotten how to score? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sympathetic Sancho is top of the Weimann Meter. Youri Tielemans' return has us feeling better. But the hero that is John McGinn drags the team and club forward again. Great performances over West Ham and Lille, big victories and our striker is even scoring too. The vibes are good, we had to recall Drury's Corner as well. Hosted on Acast.
