Football Daily | Aston Villa, ‘unacceptable insults’ and thin-skinned clutching of pearls

Sign up now! Sign up now! Sign up now? Sign up now! When Jamie Carragher appeared as a pundit on Sky Sports Super Sunday, Football Daily was surprised he didn’t have a solicitor sitting alongside him, occasionally jotting notes on a pad or leaning over to give whispered instructions and answer “no comment” to any leading questions about Trey Nyoni starting ahead of Ryan Gravenberch. On Friday night, the former Liverpool defender was subjected to a threat of legal action from Aston Villa, who took such grave exception to some “unacceptable insults” he had rained down on them from his podcast pulpit, that they were ready to call in the heavy legal artillery and stop him from preventing their “ascension in English and European football”. Taking a leaf out of the tried-and-much-ridiculed Nottingham Forest playbook , Villa chair Nassef Sawiris appears to have eschewed contacting Carragher through the usual formal channels and instead cajoled some unfortunate junior comms staffer to make the portentous announcement on their Social Media Disgraces.

WSL talking points: Kang could have a problem and how long can Slegers hang on?

Arsenal dropped points again despite dominating while Lauren James had to go off in Chelsea’s 6-0 win at Charlton London City Lionesses may have lost 2-1 to champions Manchester City, but their performance and league position have shown their European aspirations are far from unrealistic. Aided by Arsenal’s poor start, London City are third in the WSL table and were frustrated to end the day with a six-point gap to the top two after dominating in Bromley. “It’s doubly frustrating, because I think the result was not the one we deserve,” said their coach, Eder Maestre. “Manchester City are more mature. They are more used to it. When you have this consistency and you are very used to playing these kinds of games, maybe you have more experience.” Maestre’s team have a three-point lead over fourth-placed Tottenham and if they continue their upwards trajectory and qualify for the Champions League, Uefa will be forced to tackle the possible scenario of two Michelle Kang-owned clubs, London City and OL Lyonnes, qualifying sooner than they perhaps anticipated.

Premier League: 10 talking points from the weekend’s action

Marco Rose’s tactics are lifting Bournemouth, Roméo Lavia makes progress with Chelsea and Roberto De Zerbi gives youth a chance at Spurs Good defending is the mark of champions. At Anfield, where Arsenal had not won in the past 13 visits, Mikel Arteta followed the orthodoxy of locking down once his team took the lead. This time around, it proved successful. Arsenal did not allow the occasion or the stadium to get to them as they have on previous occasions. In April 2023, Granit Xhaka entangling with Trent Alexander-Arnold energised home fans previously despondent that Arsenal were 2-0 up. It finished 2-2. On Sunday, Liverpool zipped around zestfully, as Andoni Iraola requests, though the final-ball quality was lacking. That owed a great deal to the organisation of the Arsenal defence. Ahead of the last international break, Brighton set a blueprint for getting the better of Arsenal in winning 3-0 . Liverpool’s squad profile might have made a similar strategy possible though Iraola’s outfit is struggling to create chances in the same volume as Brighton or his Bournemouth team.
