Aston Villa’s Missed Chances Cost Again but Champions League Remains in Sight
About this episode
The episode discusses Aston Villa's frustrating 1-1 draw at the City Ground, analyzing missed chances and the implications for their Champions League aspirations.
Villa drew 1-1 at the City Ground. The result was frustrating. The context is encouraging. Villa came away from the City Ground with a point that felt like less than they deserved. An own goal. A Morgan Rogers chance that clipped the bar. A Watkins one-on-one that should have been buried. A McGinn effort that forced a brilliant save. The xG may have said 0.98 to Villa, but the show's assessment is it should have been three or four. This Post-mortem episode of the My Old Man Said podcast show breaks down the three pivotal moments of the game — Rogers' contribution to Forest's equaliser, the recurring clinical edge problem, and the Emi Martinez situation that is becoming harder to ignore after a third warm-up withdrawal of the season. There is also a broader assessment of what the draw means in context. Meanwhile, in the Europa League, Porto's unconvincing performance against Forest in the other quarter-final has shifted the Europa League picture.
