John McGinn’s last five games: beat Liverpool, beat Man City, win the Europa league, beat Bolivia 4-0, score at the World Cup. No one has had this much fun in the last month
Here's my World Cup 2026 Golden Boot trends preview for @Betfair. Took a lot of work this one so likes and RTs appreciated. Hopefully a few good nuggets in there. And who would have thought an 80/1 shot would pop up?!

This guy aims right for the very top. In a hypothetical league table of results since he joined (a relegation threatened team) we are solid 4th. I’ve taken us at 7th favourites at 33/1 to win the EPL. Don’t expect us to win but massive sample size now. Taking a trading position.
🎙️ “Is the objective next season to keep qualifying for the UCL, or can Aston Villa aim to win the Premier League?”
🗣️ “We want to win. Win every match. Win every competition. We’re going to play in the Super Cup, and we’re going to prepare for it.”

James Milner retiring means 2026-27 will be the first English top-flight season since 1956-57 that will not feature a single player who played under Sir Bobby Robson.
Inspired by the drama unfolding at @rolandgarros#frenchopen I’ve dusted off the old Henman racket to play tennis for the first time in years with Theo on the most beautiful court I’ve ever played on.
When I came here 2 years ago I was astounded by the incredible sunsets every single night. I love my photography and the sunsets are unbelievable. Love this place @Grecotel#melipalace#crete
They said we were already on the beach
They said the players wouldn’t be up for it
They said City will do it for Pep, Silva and Stones
They said Villa haven’t beaten City away since 2007
They said Villa haven’t done the league double over City since 1962/1963
Question is: do you want to bet against us?

Aston Villa drew 454 fouls this season, more than any other team by 37 fouls.
They were awarded 0 penalties, the fewest in the league.
The moral?
Shoot early, score bangers.
Unai Emery not even being nominated for manager of the season with a £28m net spend, a top 4 finish and a European trophy at a club that hasn't won a single thing in 30 years is wrong. But it doesn't hurt Villa or Unai Emery, it just ruins the legitimacy of the award.
Unai Emery beat:
City x 2
United
Arsenal
Liverpool
Chelsea
Won a European trophy
Finished Villa in the top 4
With a net spend of £28m
And YET, still didn’t even get nominated for Manager of the Season 🤣ridiculous.
Now Pep’s gone. He IS the best in the league
Villa just finished a 56 game season winning a Europa league title and finishing 4th in the PL . In contrast Man U played 40 games won nothing and finished 6 point ahead in 3rd. Michael Carrick managed 18 of those PL games and is nominated for manager of the season and Unai not.
Ollie Watkins is the first player in Premier League history to score a brace against each of Man City, Liverpool and Chelsea in the same campaign.

John McGinn, Tammy Abraham and Tyrone Mings 📈
The first players in history to win the Championship play-off final and a major European trophy with the same club 💜
