The capitulation Aston Villa demonstrated in their latest FA Cup failure was maddening. While it was the first blot on the copybook of Unai Emery, he at least, put out a team strong enough - on paper at least - to do the job against a well-drilled and organised Stevenage team. The Villa boss would have been surprised and even angry with what he saw at Villa Park. Where to now? Will the result have...

The last time Aston Villa won an FA Cup tie was in the season they got relegated (they beat Wycombe after a replay). It is Villa's only win in the FA Cup since the 2015 final nightmare against Arsenal. Having lost their last seven FA Cup games, can Unai Emery's cup prowess reverse their bad fortune? We look ahead to the game in Something for the Weekend. UTV BECOME A MEMBER AND GET AD-FREE AND EXC...

The Unapologetic & Dysfunctional Aston Villa Xmas Special 2022 - Part 1 2022 was a certainly a year where speculation and experimentation came to an end.

Injuries to Gerrard's key new signings didn't help matters, but he was still under...

It was the game that probably suggested to Unai Emery that Aston Villa might be a club he could work with. The 4-0 blitz of Brentford was certainly a great day at the office for caretaker manager Aaron Danks, who set Villa up in a 4-2-3-1 formation and blasted them out of the traps and 3-0 up within 15 minutes. We look back at the game and the difference from what was going on before with Steven G...
