Summary
France Has Fallen. Now for Old Trafford. Villa win 1-0 in Lille to take control of the Europa League tie — but the harder test arrives Sunday. In this double-header episode, the show analyses Villa's controlled but unconvincing win in France — the goal, the Watkins miss that should have killed the tie, and the moment John McGinn walked off the bench and immediately reminded everyone what Villa have been missing. Then it's forward to Sunday and a trip to Old Trafford, where the show sets out exactly why this fixture matters beyond three points, and why, despite United's impressive form under Carrick, this may be the moment Villa's season turns. Plus the MOMS panel prediction for Old Trafford, and a Tim Sherwood comparison that will not be retracted.
