The Unapologetic & Dysfunctional Aston Villa Xmas Special 2022 - Part 12022 was a certainly a year where speculation and experimentation came to an end. Steven Gerrard started the year with Villa supporters hopeful he could build on a reasonably positive start as Villa boss, but things soon began to head south. Injuries to Gerrard's key new signings didn't help matters, but he was still underperforming with the squad he had at his disposal.Gerrard and Dean Smith were both employed by Villa's current hierarchy despite having zero experience at the top level of English football. With Gerrard failing fast, it was time for the club to get someone in with unquestionable achievements at the highest level.In stepped Unai Emery before the World Cup break and there was suddenly hope for the concluding half of the 2022/23 season for Villa.To look back on a madcap 12 months for Aston Villa football club, the My Old Man Said team have sat down to expand the traditional Unapologetic and Dysfunctional Villa Christmas S

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 Gerrard, as well as looking at the latest Media Muppets and Three Points.This show was recorded before the announcement of Unai Emery as Villa's new Head Coach.PS - subscribe to www.astonvilla.wtfUTVFreelancers and the pensionless - get yourself £50 and an easy to start pensionMy Old Man Said is checking in to see if you have your long-term financial wealth in mind.

In the first 45 minutes against Chelsea at Villa Park, you thought there might be a chance of salvation for Steven Gerrard, if he could get something from the game. Failure to do so would turn the pressure up to maximum and any games to come would be proverbial must-win games.But is this more than just a Steven Gerrard problem? Bar a 10-game winning run in the Championship and a play-off final, the club have been a non-entity in English football for far too long. The last decade has been largely depressing for supporters. Do the current owners need to do a hard reset, if they are to have any chance of matching the often advertised ambition and continuous improvement?We discuss the current situation in depth, as well as catch up with the latest Villa news, Three Points, Media Muppets and Reasons to be Cheerful.UTVGET AD-FREE SHOWS, THE EXCLUSIVE MOMS PATRON PODCAST CHANNEL and JOIN MATCH CLUBIf you want ad-free advance versions of the shows and extra exclusive shows during the month and to join My Old Man Said
