The new Premier League season promised a fresh push for Champions League places, but two games in and Villa are yet to score. In the latest episode of the My Old Man Said podcast, we dive into the concerning signs already emerging.


Villa’s limp 1-0 defeat at Brentford felt all too familiar — predictability in attack, questionable tactical tweaks, and a severe lack of aggression or width. Despite boasting over 75% possession, Emery’s side struggled to break down a Brentford team who’ve promoted their set piece coach as manager and had key players stripped out over the summer.
