The players know it, Dean Smith knows it and as MOMS has been saying for some time, Villa have been below their par for the 2021 part of this season. It's not longer about the perspective of last season, the here and now needs addressing.The show highlights what is wrong with Villa at the moment and why suggesting it's all about Jack Grealish's absence is glossing over some obvious concerns. We look back at Villa's avoidable home defeat to Spurs and catch up on the latest Villa news, the highlight being Ollie Watkins call-up to the England squad.We also take a look at the potential scope of merging the Belgian and Dutch leagues, Angel Di Maria's bizarre substitution and Bono's injury-time goal.Overrated or Underrated looks at a player with one of the shortest Villa careers - Robbie Keane.EnjoyUTVGET THE EXCLUSIVE MOMS PATRON PODCAST CHANNEL and JOIN MATCH CLUBIf you want extra podcast shows during the month and to join Match Club, please do support the show by becoming a MOMS Patron.For more details and to be

There seems to be two trains of thought when it comes to Aston Villa's season so far. On one hand, the club has made progress, but there's also an underlining disappointment that a stuttering 2021 has undermined the full potential of the team.Villa's 0-0 draw with Wolves was perhaps further evidence of what is good about the current team and where it has cause for concern.The MOMS team ponder all the issues, as well as taking look at topics further afield like the collapse of Chinese football and England's hopes of hosting the World Cup in 2030.Overrated or Underrated takes a look at one of the opposition players from last weekend, former Villan, Adama Traore.EnjoyUTVGET THE EXCLUSIVE MOMS PATRON PODCAST CHANNEL and JOIN MATCH CLUBIf you want extra podcast shows during the month and to join Match Club, please do support the show by becoming a MOMS Patron.For more details and to become a Patron, click here: Join MOMS PatronsFollow the show on Twitter at @myoldmansaid and join the show's listener

Aston Villa have been struggling in recent weeks with a stuttering midfield and have needed to rely on their defensive resilience to snatch points. Now Dean Smith has a further problem with the sudden loss of his captain and talisman, Jack Grealish.The 2-1 loss to Leicester City was perhaps no surprise, with or without Grealish, but the honeymoon period of the 20/21 is over. There's issues to sort out. Can Smith get his midfield up to the level of his defence? What's eating Ross Barkley? Is it time for a reshuffle of the pack? We lookat all this and more.Outside of Villa we look at the potential evolution of VAR, after MOMS met PGMOL last week, the stand off between the EFL and government, and the latest Sun headline that casts a shadow over the England squad.In Overrated or Underrated, it's time for Emile Heskey to step up for his appraisalEnjoy!UTVGET THE EXCLUSIVE MOMS PATRON PODCAST CHANNEL and JOIN MATCH CLUBIf you want extra podcast shows during the month and to join Match Club, please do support the sh

Not for the first time this season, Aston Villa's midfield was overrun, as Brighton's press frustrated and neutralised a Villa team that eventually was lucky to escape the Amex with a point, thanks to Emilio Martínez and his back four.The 0-0 draw at the Amex Stadium wasn't the first time we've seen Villa struggle against a high energy midfield. Is Dean Smith's perceived first XI up to the job against such teams? Or does he need to make adjustments? We look at the Villa midfield situation and the midfield personnel searching for solutions.Also in the show, there's talk of compromised zoom calls, bizarre reasons to postpone football games, the retirement of Ron Vlaar and Jacob Ramsey's new contract.Overated or underrated features ex-Villa and Brighton midfielder Steve Sidwell.Enjoy!UTVGET THE EXCLUSIVE MOMS PATRON PODCAST CHANNEL and JOIN MATCH CLUBIf you want extra podcast shows during the month and to join Match Club, please do support the show by becoming a MOMS Patron.For more details and to become a Patro
