#253 | Catch Flights, Not Feelings

Gameweek 32 had it all: comebacks, upsets, and dominant displays—but let’s talk about Aston Villa, because Unai Emery’s side are cooking harder than Michael B. Jordan in Sinners. With two commanding performances back to back, they’ve officially gatecrashed the Uefa Champions League conversation. Let’s break it all down.

Manchester City 5–2 Crystal Palace: Man City showcased their elite mentality, overturning a two goal deficit. The orchestration of Kevin De Bruyne was pivotal in this game, as City hunt for a top 5 position.

Newcastle United 4–1 Manchester United: Newcastle's dynamic attacking play, led by Barnes' brace, exposed Man United's defensive weaknesses. Will the Toon Army be be making a triumphant return to the Champions League?

Chelsea 2–2 Ipswich Town: The defensive frailties of Chelsea were on display, as they had to claw back from a two goals down. A late Jadon Sancho equalizer salvaged a point against Ipswich Town, but questions remain about the consistency of the blues.

Southampton 0–3 Aston Villa: Villa didn’t just win they suffocated Southampton. A textbook Unai Emery away performance: organized, aggressive, ruthless.

Arsenal 1–1 Brentford: Arsenal's midfield control was evident, but Wissa's equalizer exposed their vulnerability to counterattacks. Dropped points here could prove costly in the title race.
