Like I said there, to get into the European final and win 3-0 but play sublime football.
I know the opposition wasn't as strong.
It was imaginative.
It was brave.
And you're coasting home.
You could never have dreamed that Aston Villa would be in that position where they're actually 30 years later, they're just hammering a team 3-0 and they're going for the fourth goal before the game's even over.
I got so emotional watching Emery afterwards actually it was just chuffed is a good word for it I was chuffed for the players it's so weird like these boys that you're watching week in week out and obviously with a lot more of a forensic eye than anybody else would be because why else would anybody be watching Villa in that much detail but
and that's sort of the beauty that's what makes it more satisfying is that when it's bad with these boys it is really bad and it's hard to take and it's stomach churning but when it's good it means so much more because it's always like a redemption arc then you know Emi Buendia he was man of the match the much maligned Emi Buendia and so every time he has a good game it's like good for him good for him it's funny because we discussed this briefly off air but say if Joe had been off yesterday and you were hosting yesterday and if you were a huge Arsenal fan

Where do you want to start?
Well, I mean, 1-0 Tielemans, an Austin McPhee special.
The set-piece coach hasn't always been very popular in, I'd say, the football stratosphere.
Not Austin McPhee, the set-piece coach.
No, Austin McPhee, yeah.
They said, Tielemans I think said afterwards that they only worked on that.
They only had one day to work on that and they did it yesterday.
So that is the beauty of McPhee.
You know, Villa said pieces on the opposite side of the pitch aren't great so I don't know if that's his domain as well but it takes a lot of credit when they do score.
