Mid-Season Review: Are Villa Quietly Becoming a Superpower?

On this week’s episode, the lads dive into the madness of the Premier League’s mid-season—who’s smashing it, who’s collapsing, and who’s just clinging on for dear life…

With the transfer window firmly shut, we break down the biggest winners and losers. Has Chelsea completely lost the plot? Are Man United beyond saving? And have Aston Villa quietly becoming a powerhouse?

Plus, there’s a heated debate about the most controversial sock choice, an absolutely legendary fan story featuring an awkward encounter at an airport Wetherspoons, and a look at how footballers actually unwind after those high-adrenaline night games.
