Villa march north in a different mood. Unai Emery has chiselled resilience and ambition into this squad, a group now comfortable in the Premier League’s sharp company. Winless in their opening six games, they have since lost one of seven, culminating in that eye widening victory against Manchester City. Confidence does not just exist, it travels.

Whether you were at the game or following from elsewhere, we want to know what you learned.

Slot 'completely happy' with Liverpool squad.
