"Perfect Start" for Gerrard

Listen on

Episode notes

Dan Bardell hosts The Athletic's podcast all about Aston Villa with Junior Editor Holly Percival and Crystal Palace writer Matt Woosnam.

No fireworks at Villa Park, but Steven Gerrard described the 2-0 win against Brighton as the perfect start, and it's difficult to disagree.

It's a trip to Selhurst Park next as the fixtures pile up and we talk about Christian Benteke's recent upturn in form with Palace writer Matt Woosnam.
