## Resource

Aston Villa have endured a disastrous start to the season on and off the pitch. Losing 4-0 to Brighton on the opening day was bad enough, but now star striker Ollie Watkins and goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez are set to leave the club, with replacements needing to be rushed through the door before the transfer window closes. Niall and Marley dissect what's happening at Villa Park and whether this is just the way things are with PSR pressures in the modern day game.
