Nothing to Lose – Villa’s Do-or-Die Night Against PSG
With Villa Park set for a blockbuster European night, Aston Villa stare down the biggest challenge of their season: overturning a first-leg defeat to one of Europe’s most relentless teams, Paris Saint-Germain.
In this episode of the My Old Man Said Podcast, David and Chris go full throttle into what Villa must do – tactically, mentally, and emotionally – to pull off a famous comeback.
Key Talking Points:
What Went Wrong in Paris
Villa barely touched the ball in the first leg, and the hosts discuss how PSG’s energy and cohesion exposed every weakness in the squad – especially on the right-hand side.
How Villa Must Approach the Second Leg
From shape and selection tweaks to mentality shifts, the discussion breaks down how Emery can turn this into a night to remember. It’s high risk, high reward — and nothing but bravery will do.
Watkins, Rashford & the Moment for a Hero
Can Ollie Watkins silence his critics? Is it time for Rashford or Asensio to take the spotlight? The show debates who could be the unexpected match-winner if Villa are to shock Europe.
