Dan Rolinson and John Townley answer your Aston Villa questions after Unai Emery's side exited the FA Cup in the fourth round.

Villa Park has its hero back. In a move that's sent a "tactical tremor" through the Premier League, Unai Emery has secured Tammy Abraham for a clinical €21 million. In this episode, we break down why the 28-year-old's return is much more than just a nostalgia trip—it's a declaration of war on the top six.We dive into the "Turkish odyssey" that transformed Tammy into a bona fide gladiator, looking at the staggering 40 goals and 12 assists he notched during his time at Besiktas. From his 6'4” aerial dominance to his ice-cold composure, we analyze how Emery plans to pair him with Ollie Watkins to create the league's most terrifying strike partnership. Can the man who once spearheaded Villa's promotion now lead them to Champions League glory? Tammy Abraham Aston Villa, Unai Emery tactics, Aston Villa transfer news, Premier League strikers, Besiktas goals.

Out of the FA Cup but marching on in the league, Unai Emery fields a weakened team against Saudi Arabia... but they were actually good, until you know what. Lucas Digne disappoints again and Leon Bailey doesn't inspire much confidence and should Tammy Abraham be the main striker now? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

05 29-01-26 LHDW Ahora suena Unai Emery para entrenar al R.Madrid, ¿Le queda grande?. Y si el que viene es Mourinho, situación límite del club

Wolfie looks into a busy day regarding transfers at Nottingham Forest! Check out FFTV Merch! Click Here: https://forestfantv.com/ The January window is entering its final straight, and things are moving at lightning speed at the City Ground! David Ornstein has dropped a major bombshell reporting that Nottingham Forest have officially submitted a £35 million bid for Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta. The Frenchman is reportedly keen on a move to the East Midlands as he looks for a fresh challenge, and with personal terms not expected to be an issue, this one could move quickly. Wolfie breaks down the likelihood of this deal crossing the line before the deadline, especially with the added spice of Forest facing Palace this Sunday. Is Mateta the clinical finisher Sean Dyche needs to guarantee our safety? In a shocking twist, we also have significant updates on Douglas Luiz's future. Reports from Fabrizio Romano and Sky Sports suggest a "Here We Go" agreement is in place for Luiz to return to Aston Villa on loan with an option to buy, effectively cutting his spell at Forest short. It's been a frustrating time for the Brazilian at the City Ground, and with Unai Emery facing a midfield injury crisis, the move seems to suit all parties. We're also diving into the surprise links to Brighton captain Lewis Dunk. We want to hear from you in the comments—how do you feel about Douglas Luiz heading back to Villa Park? Is Mateta the "statement" signing we need, or should we be looking at other targets like Jørgen Strand Larsen? And what do you make of the Lewis Dunk rumours—is he exactly the kind of Premier League experience we need alongside Murillo? It's going to be a wild few days as the clock ticks down, so make sure you're subscribed to Forest Fan TV for all the latest breaking news and analysis.

Can he guide Manchester United into the Champions League places — and does he deserve the permanent head coach role?

On today's episode of The Transfer Flow, Patrick and Ted break down the final week of the January transfer window and the stories shaping the run-in. We start with Spurs' move for Andy Robertson and whether a 31-year-old fullback on a long contract makes sense for a team still searching for stability. Then we turn to the market's biggest forward as Arsenal and Barcelona chase Julián Álvarez, asking if he's worth a nine-figure fee and if he's the striker Arsenal need. From there we unpack Manchester United's win over Arsenal, looking at Arteta's tactical choices, slow restarts, and growing physical strain, plus how United's press and long-range shooting swung a title race that suddenly feels tighter. We then move to Aston Villa under Unai Emery, questioning whether their long-range goal spree is a genuine tactical edge or a hot streak, what it means for expected goals, and how the modern striker role is evolving as more teams build attacks around creating space for midfield shooters.

THIS MATCH IS CRUCIAL wrote Unai Emery in the match programme notes for the Everton game. The players it seems didn't get the memo.Everton came to Villa Park with a clear plan and left having disrupted the one area Aston Villa normally rely on for control. The midfield. Not through brilliance, but through physicality, timing, and exploiting a lack of cohesion caused by Villa's injuries and enforced changes.This My Old Man Said post-mortem focuses on why Villa never established rhythm, why second balls kept going the wrong way, and how Everton repeatedly bypassed what is usually Villa's strongest platform. Without stability in the middle, everything else felt reactive rather than controlled.There is discussion of personnel issues, structural balance, and how quickly control can evaporate when familiarity is lost. This is not framed as a season-long flaw, but it is a problem in the present tense. One that matters if left unresolved.UTVGet a Great NordVPN DealGet a cracking deal on NordVPN with four months FREE & a 30 days money-back guarantee here: nordvpn.com/momsGET AD-FREE SHOWS and JOIN MATCH CLUBGet ad-free shows and extra shows, and join My Old Man Said's 24/7 Villa community, Match Club.For more details and to become a member, click here: Become a MOMS MemberJoin the show's listener facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid Chris Budd - @BUDD_musicPhillip Shaw - @prsgameMusic production & creation - David MichaelMy Old Man Said - https://www.myoldmansaid.comThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

Aston Villa, under Unai Emery, have got plenty right in the transfer market. They've also got things wrong, Emery admits "mistakes" during the summer window. So, with the help of Matt Lynch and Dan Bardell, Dan Rolinson opens up a critical analysis of Aston Villa's transfer strategy.

Dan Bardell is joined by The Athletic's data analyst Mark Carey to analyse Aston Villa's goalless draw at Crystal Palace. No goals, but plenty to discuss. Ollie Watkins looked sharp, Villa controlled large spells — yet a clear Palace weakness went unexploited. Was this a good away point, or a missed opportunity?
