What a night. What a performance. What a heartbreak.

Aston Villa are out of the Champions League, but after one of the most electric nights Villa Park has ever seen, Unai Emery’s side walk away with heads held high — and a new standard set.

David and Chris unpack the full fallout of a wild, unforgettable night under the lights as Villa fought back from the brink against Paris Saint-Germain, only to fall agonisingly short.

Aston Villa have done what few expected — four league wins on the bounce and back in the thick of the Champions League chase. After a composed win over Southampton and with huge clashes against PSG and Newcastle looming, this could be the most pivotal week in modern Villa history.

In this episode of the My Old Man Said Podcast, we reflect on the significance of the Southampton win, Emery’s selection strategy, and why Newcastle at Villa Park might just be the playoff for a Champions League spot.

With Villa Park set for a blockbuster European night, Aston Villa stare down the biggest challenge of their season: overturning a first-leg defeat to one of Europe’s most relentless teams, Paris Saint-Germain.

In this episode of the My Old Man Said Podcast, David and Chris go full throttle into what Villa must do — tactically, mentally, and emotionally — to pull off a famous comeback.

It's time for Aston Villa's biggest game on the European stage for 42 years, as they begin their two-legged Champions League quarter-final clash against PSG in Paris. Unai Emery's men are certainly underdogs, but do they carry an element of surprise? Namely, they don't even know themselves how good they could potentially be.

After three back-to-back Premier League wins, Aston Villa fans can start looking at the league table again without wincing. A place in the Champions League next season isn't off the table anymore and the Europa League looks a potential back-up plan. While Villa will be challenged keeping the season going across three tournaments, they have a fully fit squad and a reset in their attitude. A strong finish from here on in and who knows what is possible!

We look back at the 2-1 win over Nottingham Forest and look ahead to PSG.

After an international break, when Unai Emery took those who stayed behind to Dubai, came progress through to the FA Cup semi-final and a useful Premier League away win against Brighton. With a Champions League quarter-final on the horizon, we look ahead to PSG and look back at Preston and Brighton.

With a fully fit squad at his disposal can Unai Emery deliver in the business end of the season?

Aston Villa have done it! After 42 years, Villa are back in a Champions League quarter-final, securing their place with a controlled performance against Club Brugge to win 6-2 on aggregate over two legs.. But now, the stakes are even higher – PSG await in what promises to be a monumental clash and a real test of Unai Emery's European pedigree.

We look back at how Villa sealed the deal against Bruges – Emery’s tactical approach, the sending off and second-half dominance. Then, we look at the recent evolution of the PSG team and problems they will pose.

Unai Emery kept the same backline against Brentford, as he did in the first leg of Villa's Champions League against Brugge - has he finally found a settled line-up? Also, Ollie Watkins does his standard Dr Jekyll and Hyde routine - scoring and adding to his big chances missed. We discuss Emery's defensive evolution and a rare clean sheet.

Plus, in Three Points, there's the latest dubious move from FIFA head honcho Gianni Infantino, as he proposes rug pulling football's global supporter base with a FIFA coin.

After comfortably dispatching Cardiff City at Villa Park in the FA Cup, it's time for Villa's double Club Bruges date, to see if they can also get into the Champions League quarter-finals. We forget the Premier League to focus on two tournaments that Villa are still well-placed to achieve in.
