Are Aston Villa flying the flag for English teams in Europe?

Aston Villa beat Lille 1-0 in the Europa League, but they were the only English side to win in Europe this week. What's gone wrong for the Premier League teams on the Continent? And, does the standard of the Premier League have to come into question? Plus, after fan trouble marred Villa's win, does it seem to be impossible for English supporters to be treated fairly when abroad?


Tottenham Hotspur travel to play Liverpool on Sunday, but is their former chairman Daniel Levy really the person to blame for their plight? Arsenal and Manchester City are both in action this weekend as they continue to compete at the top of the Premier League, but how does this Arsenal side compare to previous league leaders after 30 games? And Brentford owner Matthew Benham reveals what he looks for in a striker.
