All Villa No Filler - An Aston Villa Podcast

Two lifelong Aston Villa fans take a light-hearted look at the highs & lows of supporting the world's best football team.

Frankie flies solo for a second time this week to describe Villa's magnificent 3-0 victory over Leeds United. Villa were solid and creative in their victory at Elland Road, with Coutinho and Matty Cash particularly on fire. We look at what went right and how Villa have now won three in a row.

Frankie also laughs at the Leeds fans who abused our mighty captain Tyrone Mings and were made to look foolish in the end.

We also look ahead to Villa's trip to West Ham on Sunday. Can Villa spoil West Ham's pursuit of a Champions League place and match David Moyes' very physical side? There's every reason to believe that we can.

Two lifelong Aston Villa fans take a light-hearted look at the highs & lows of supporting the world's best football team.

Frankie flies solo this week to describe Villa's magnificent 4-0 victory over Southampton. The Saints were in very good form going into the match, but a Coutinho-inspired Villa made them look utterly ordinary at the weekend.

Frankie has high praise for every player and focuses on what has changed since the Watford and Newcastle defeats. Ultimately, in both the Brighton and Southampton games, Villa have looked more cohesive and solid defensively.

We also look ahead to Villa's trip to Elland Road on Thursday. Can Villa keep up their good form as Leeds fight to stay above the relegation places? Have we learnt our lessons after blowing a 3-1 lead against the same team a few weeks ago? Let's hope!

Two lifelong Aston Villa fans take a light-hearted look at the highs & lows of supporting the world's best football team.

Villa ended a poor run of form with a solid 2-0 win at the Amex Stadium against Brighton. Frankie & George review a win that saw Steven Gerrard use 'back to basics' tactics which left Villa's defence looking more solid than in recent weeks.

In the 'Spicy Question' feature, the hosts consider whether Danny Ings & Ollie Watkins should start together again in the coming weeks after their Brighton showing.

The duo also look ahead to Villa's next match against Southampton. The South Coast side have been in good form recently and won on their last two visits to Villa Park...can Villa end that run?

A tough game to review (which is why George & Frankie spend a significant amount of time in this episode talking about The Simpsons). Villa were defeated 1-0 by Newcastle at St. James's Park on Sunday in what was a very poor performance. Frankie & George reminisce about why almost nothing went right for Villa all game.

In the 'Spicy Question' feature, the hosts get nostalgic and pick their favourite Aston Villa shirt.

The duo also look ahead to Villa's next match against an out-of-form Watford. Can Villa fix their issues and get back to winning ways against a team in the relegation zone?

Two lifelong Aston Villa fans take a light-hearted look at the highs & lows of supporting the world's best football team.

A Coutinho & Jacob Ramsey inspired Aston Villa fought back from a goal down to lead 3-1 against Leeds, but some shambolic defending saw the game finish 3-3. Frankie & George discuss what went very right & annoyingly wrong.

In the 'Spicy Question' feature, the hosts give their thoughts on whether Douglas Luiz could be sold in the near future as rumours of interest from Arsenal gather pace.

The duo also look ahead to Villa's next match away at Newcastle. Can Villa stop the momentum of Newcastle, a side which has won two games in a row?

Aston Villa had an action-packed transfer window, signing major talents like Coutinho, Lucas Digne, Calum Chambers, Kerr Smith and Robin Olsen. The club added a mix of proven quality, versatility and potential.

Villa also saw a few major outgoings. Anwar El Ghazi joined Everton on loan, whilst Matt Targett moved to Newcastle until the end of the season.

Highly-rated youth players Louie Barry, Arjan Raikhy, Tyreik Wright, Jaden Philogene-Bidace, Cameron Archer and Kaine Kesler-Hayden also moved out on loan to gain more experience.

Frankie was joined by guest Tom Nightingale, who is a member of the Toronto Lions and a regular contributor to the Holtecast podcast. They reviewed the transfer window and assessed where Villa had succeeded. They also looked at areas where Villa could still improve.

Calum Chambers has signed for Aston Villa on a free transfer from Arsenal. The versatile defender reportedly signed a three year contract with the club.

Chambers is best known as a central defender and right-back. He has endured some frustrating injuries in recent years but also won Player of The Season when he was on loan at Fulham in 2018/19. He spent the year playing in defensive midfield, which again showed his versatility.

We met Andrew Mangan from Arseblog to discuss Chambers' key attributes and his thoughts on the player's time at Arsenal.

Juventus midfielder, Rodrigo Bentancur, has been heavily linked with a move to Premier League side Aston Villa. The Uruguayan international has played for the Italian club for five seasons, having moved to Juventus from Boca Juniors in 2017.

To find out more, Frankie met Adam Digby, a Juventus reporter for Forbes & author of 'Juventus: A History in Black and White'. He explained what Villa fans might expect from Bentancur and why Juventus might be willing to sell their midfielder.

Should the transfer go ahead, Bentancur would represent another ambitious move by Villa. The club has signed Coutinho, Lucas Digne, Robin Olsen and Kerr Smith during the January transfer window, with manager Steven Gerrard still eager to get more business done.

Everton v Aston Villa turned out to be a real physical battle, with the centre of the pitch particularly congested. Despite that, Villa managed to gain a 1-0 victory at Goodison Park thanks to a fantastic header from Emi Buendia. George & Frankie discuss the recent improvement in Buendia's form and his growing importance for the team. They praise the performance of the entire defence but also find Villa's second-half showing in attack demonstrated the side's frustrating lack of consistency.

In the 'Spicy Question' feature, the hosts give their thoughts on Aston Villa's transfer window and what positions the club should try to improve. They also discuss recent media reports linking Villa to Juventus midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur.

The duo also look ahead to Villa's next match at home against a struggling Leeds United. Can Villa make it two wins in a row and hold off the excellence of Raphinha down the wing?
