Claret & Blue Podcast

Ollie Watkins has been putting in the hard yards at Bodymoor Heath, staying behind for extra training sessions and working on his finishing. Scoring 6 goals in 8 games in 2023, Watkins' hard-work is paying off.

"It's not as good as it used to be" and "It's trendy to have a moan about Villa Park" are two contrasting opinions you'll see amongst the Aston Villa fanbase in regards to the atmosphere at Villa Park.

Can the club itself do anything differently? Do the players have to inspire the crowd, or do the crowd inspire the players? What about Project B6 and their efforts? There's lots to discuss when it comes to the Villa Park atmosphere, so let's do just that. #AVFC #UTV

Aston Villa manager Unai Emery insists a draw was the fair result against West Ham at the London Stadium, but has questioned the referee's decision to award the hosts a penalty.

Ollie Watkins broke the deadlock as he scored his 9th goal of the season by heading in Alex Moreno's cross, but just nine minutes later, Said Benrahma levelled from the penalty spot.
