The more things change...
Roberto De Zerbi claims we’re not a team yet and weren't ready. But why? The jetlag from the Australasian tour? The endless injury list? A deeper malaise?
Meanwhile, we’ve handed him millions to shape his team. What if he flounces out in October? The next bloke will inherit yet another mismatched Frankenstein squad.
We deep-dive the Brentford debacle and look at incomings and outgoings.
Joining world-weary host Simon Lipson are:
• Julie Welch, effing and blinding
• Kev Acott, delusionally believing
• Lee Brown, hypocritically calling out the bedwetters
Plus: Villa fans' 24 hour Schadenfreude, why blaming Michael Oliver is idiotic, a fond farewell to "Flappy", and a look ahead to Charlton and Newcastle.
And, of course, some juicy Room 101s.
