Episode notes
One Eye on Fulham, Both Eyes on Forest
A 1-0 defeat at Craven Cottage that was never really about Fulham.
Villa lost to Fulham on Saturday. Ryan Sessegnon, who has made a habit of tormenting Villa over the years, scored the only goal. Rogers and Watkins missed big chances within thirty seconds of each other that, on another day, would have settled the game before half-time. The four substitutions made simultaneously at the seventy-fourth minute told you everything about where Emery's priorities lie this week.
In this episode the show dissects a passive, lethargic performance and asks the honest question: was this always going to happen in the lead up to the Europa League semi-final first leg at the City Ground? As well as the usual post-mortem proceedings, it also touches on the clash with Forest as it goes along.
