The Villa Podcast episodes

March 12, 2023 Bertie T returns, Dougie rise, Cash interview & MOTD
Emi Buendia v Danny Ings had nothing to do with football but it was symptomatic of Villa's approach to defending corners. Emi Martinez had an un-Martinez like game and Callum Chambers was thrown into midfield again. A lot of fun in today's podcast, even from that game!
Matt Cash has another insightful interview on Emery and we imagine what Match of the Day could have done if we were producers and needed to fill the seats.

March 04, 2023 Buendia's Aston Villa, McGinn's buttocks, Ramsey's confidence
Results Man Emery makes it two in a row again for Aston Villa and two clean sheets. Patrick Vieira's poor Crystal Palace side were put away at Villa Park as Doucoure does everything he can to get sent off. Bad news on Boubacar Kamara but McGinn and Buendia and Cash have really stepped up but JJ's form is off. We also discuss the new Anti-Martinez Rule, Wilfried Zaha and the Villa players arriving for training.

February 19, 2023 Dangerous Villa, childish Villa, another gilet at Villa
Aston Villa can make goals happen. They can also give them away like there nobody's business. Arsenal let off the hook today as Unai Emery's side show their best and their very, very worst in a gradually fading performance.

February 12, 2023 Grealish dive, Pep's legacy, Neville's eyes, start Duran
Well... that was hard to stomach, Jack Grealish is on top of the menu today as Aston Villa go down to Man City. Gary Neville's demise continues as he tries to speak about the dive, about Haaland's challenge on Martinez, about the 115 charges the Premier League have brought on City.
In WhatsApp Whinges (17:41), we discuss the City fans feeling sorry for themselves, their protests against the PL and Pep Guardiola's decision to come out batting for the club - and Liam brings a bat to Pep Guardiola's career too.
The Awards kick off at 31:43 before we get introduced to Nathan Jones (54:29) on his way out the door.

An emergency WTF summit is called for the top of the show as we sift through the goals.
WhatsApp Whinges (19:16) doles out the fines and anticipates the return of Bertrand Traore.
Liam's Jacob Ramsey is pitted against Conán's Ollie Watkins in a super competitive Rosenthal Award (23:26).

January 21, 2023 Villa are in the mix! Watkins > Ings and "elite" Mings
Another away win! Unai Emery makes it five wins in his first seven Premier League games as manager of Aston Villa. Ollie Watkins' header from a Douglas Luiz free kick settled this but Villa had their luck which Liam and Conán discuss. Also, the very real possibility of a European challenge - how on earth do we ready ourselves for this? Danny Ings departs for West Ham and the timing confuses everyone whilst Chelsea continue to spend and to seemingly no avail.

January 14, 2023 Kamara and Dua Lipa, magic man Bailey, Rashford receipts
Aston Villa win again and it's not just Unai Emery's coat that catches attention, his beautiful Instagram message too. Leon Bailey The Enigma Part XXVI gives us more food for thought but there are some disagreements about where Ashley Young and Alex Moreno belong on The Weimann Meter.

January 10, 2023 Harry Maguire, Bailey and cup manager Unai
Liam returns and there's a lot to talk about. Villa beat Spurs, Bailey beats the keeper against Wolves and misses, everyone is off the boil against Stevenage - except John McGinn.
Harry Maguire is f**king linked to Aston Villa, David De Gea is still being paid and Villa are out of all cup competitions. Happy new year.

December 28, 2022 Rosenthal spirit, MacPhee relapses, unpredictable Nunez
Aston Villa and Liverpool play out a ding dong encounter and this podcast revolves mostly around one question: Are Aston Villa good? They're good and bad, it seems. Both teams miss loads of chances with Darwin Nunez leading the way for Liverpool but Watkins, McGinn and Bailey play out an exciting Rosenthal Award category.
With tactics talk, the lack of subs and even Dean Smith on the menu too, the podcast ends with a reminder that we won't be podcasting after the Spurs game!
