Cal and Darcy break down West Ham vs Aston Villa in the Premier League. They discuss why a potentially high-risk 4-4-2 high block could be the way to disrupt the central rotations which have powered Unai Emery's charge up the table with Villa after their poor start to the season and the need for positional discipline and a zonal midfield approach to maintain compactness. Cal and Darcy also talk about what approach could work best going forward to create chances, advocating for Jarrod Bowen to play up front in order to maximise his threat and minimise the chance of him being tasked with tracking marauding full-backs, while also capitalising on Aston Villa's biggest weaknesses with take-ons and conceding chances from set-pieces.
