My Old Man Said - An Aston Villa Podcast

After a winning week that took Aston Villa from the chaos of Rotterdam to the comfort of Villa Park, My Old Man Said returns to make sense of it all.From the surreal experience of being herded behind Perspex to watch Villa play Feyenoord to the sight of Napalm Death on the flight home, the European trip had everything - but most importantly, it reminded fans what Unai Emery’s Villa can be when fully switched on.Back on home soil, Burnley offered the perfect chance to consolidate that rhythm. With Marlen’s ruthless finishing, Bogarde’s composure under pressure, and a midfield that finally hummed again, it felt like the real Villa had clocked back in. Yet, the familiar sight of a soft goal from a set piece showed there’s still work to do before they can start dreaming bigger.In this episode, we unpack the growing control in Villa’s play, the tactical tweaks behind the win, and why this run might just be the spark to reawaken Emery’s machine - plus a few laughs along the way.UTVAs mentioned in the show:Inve
