It’s been an incredible rise for the women’s team, fans can be excited for the future, and proud of the achievement so far. We caught up with our Villa Women’s reporter, Hannah Pinnock, to discuss the club’s ascent under Carla Ward and the prospect of an FA Cup final at Wembley this May. 🎙🎙 DONATE TO OUR HALF MARATHON EFFORT:

2023/03/23

Aston Villa's Brazilian dynamic midfielder Douglas Luiz signed a new deal in October 2022 after interest from Arsenal in the summer transfer window. Since then, Unai Emery's transformed Douglas Luiz into a player most would consider one of the first names on the team sheet. Long term, if Aston Villa want to reach the heights of European football, players like Douglas Luiz will be a key component in the Unai Emery journey. 🎙🎙 DONATE TO OUR HALF MARATHON EFFORT:

WHY OLLIE WATKINS DESERVES A NEW ASTON VILLA CONTRACT...

2023/03/21

Ollie Watkins has been putting in the hard yards at Bodymoor Heath, staying behind for extra training sessions and working on his finishing. Scoring 6 goals in 8 games in 2023, Watkins' hard-work is paying off. Despite an England snub by Gareth Southgate recently (more time on the training field with Unai Emery!) - we firmly believe Ollie Watkins should receive a brand new Aston Villa contract. 🎙🎙 DONATE TO OUR HALF MARATHON EFFORT:

"It's not as good as it used to be" and "It's trendy to have a moan about Villa Park" are two contrasting opinions you'll see amongst the Aston Villa fanbase in regards to the atmosphere at Villa Park. Can the club itself do anything differently? Do the players have to inspire the crowd, or do the crowd inspire the players? What about Project B6 and their efforts? There's lots to discuss when it comes to the Villa Park atmosphere, so let's do just that. #AVFC #UTV Follow Project B6 on Twitter:
