Aston Villa return from a Europa League win against Young Boys with plenty to argue about. The xG police have spent the week sounding alarms, but MOMS explains why the conversation around underperformance is nonsense. Villa are evolving, not chancing their luck. Emery has shifted his side toward controlled mid-range and long-range shooting patterns, and the data heads have not caught up yet.
The episode also looks back at the Young Boys win and the question the habit of Villa looking a little foggy after European nights. With two-point Wolves up next, it is exactly the fixture that can trip a team that has not fully reset. There is talk of a lack of sharpness, with Ollie Watkins needing a spark and the reality of winter football when injuries and workload begin to stack.
Along the way the show looks at Premier League’s new Squad Cost Ratio idea, the odd decisions coming out of Sky’s TikTok department and Ronaldo’s mystery discount ban. It is the new format of the show, built around more stories, more football insight and more of the MOMS irreverence that cuts through the noise.
