The Athletic's Gregg Evans joins Dan Bardell to reflect on another controversial defeat for the Villa, as Dean Smith's side found themselves, yet again, on the receiving end of some questionable officiating. They also debate whether Tyrone Mings was partly to blame for City's opener, and whether Ollie Watkins' lack of goals is starting to become a concern. They discuss the ever-changing role of John McGinn, and Gregg updates us on the latest transfer news. He tells us about the player Villa should be signing this month, and their long-term plans for attacking reinforcements. Plus...Dan lists his top 3 Villa away days. SPECIAL JANUARY OFFER!
