John McGinn says Aston Villa can have "another great season" if they can repeat their level of performance in Wednesday's Super Cup defeat to Paris St-Germain. "I'm very proud of our performance," said McGinn. McGinn also backed 17-year-old breakout star Brian Madjo to have an ongoing impact after his goal in the fixture.
Why - outside newly promoted teams Hull City, Coventry and Ipswich - are Sunderland once again among the bookmakers' favourites for the drop? While results and where you finish in the table are ultimately all that matter, Sunderland's underlying statistics from last season suggest repeating their success might not be so simple. While Aston Villa and Sunderland made a mockery of xG by finishing much higher in the table, the majority of sides finished mostly in line with their underlying numbers, showing those two overachievers were more the exception that proves the rule.
Manchester United didn’t need to spend a single pound to land one of their most exciting attacking options for 2026/27 because he was theirs all along.

Reigning European champions PSG kicked off the new season by retaining their UEFA Super Cup title, beating Premier League side Aston Villa 2-1 in Salzburg. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Désiré Doué scored the goals for Luis Enriqué's team.
After eight months in limbo, the outcome was worth the wait for Brian Madjo. Aston Villa may have lost the Uefa Super Cup 2-1 to Paris St-Germain in Salzburg on Wednesday but the striker made an impressive impact after finally getting the chance to showcase his talent. With Ollie Watkins rested after World Cup duty and Tammy Abraham left on the bench, the youngster was given the responsibility up front by Emery having scored four pre-season goals.

New Newcastle United boss Matthias Jaissle (Picture: Getty) Newcastle United have set their sights on signing a new midfielder after selling Bruno Guimaraes to Arsenal. The Magpies were reluctant to lose Brazil international Guimaraes, who has developed into a fans’ favourite at St James’ Park over the past four seasons. But Arsenal’s strong push for the 28-year-old and Guimaraes’ desire to leave forced Newcastle to sell for a fee of £75m. Newcastle have welcomed two midfielders to the club, 20-year-old Aladji Bamba and 18-year-old Sean Steur, but neither are seen as direct replacements for Guimaraes.

New boss Matthias Jaissle wants a more experienced midfielder to arrive at St James’ Park, hence why Newcastle recently expressed interest in former Tottenham captain Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg. But BBC Sport say Hojbjerg is ‘only one of a handful of options Newcastle are considering’ for Jaissle, who has replaced Eddie Howe in the hot-seat. Newcastle were forced to sell Bruno Guimaraes to Arsenal (Picture: Getty) A separate report from the Daily Mail says Newcastle have made an approach to sign Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba. Jaissle is said to be an ‘admirer’ of Baleba, who was close to joining Manchester United this time last year only to stay on the south coast. United were widely tipped to revive their interest in Baleba this summer but turned to other options, signing Andrey Santos from Chelsea and Youri Tielemans from Aston Villa. Brighton star and Man Utd target Carlos Baleba (Picture: Getty) Michael Carrick remains open to signing a third new midfielder but the £35m deal for Tielemans is already the best buy of the summer, according to Nicky Butt. ‘I think Youri Tielemans is the best signing of the transfer window,’ Butt said on The Good, The Bad & The Football podcast, sponsored by Midnite. ‘Looking at his fee, his age, his experience – he’s played in the Champions League and World Cups and he’s a great footballer. I think that’s a brilliant signing for Manchester United.’ Asked who he rates as the best signing of the summer transfer window, Butt added: ‘I think it’s Youri Tielemans. ‘If he was up at £70m or £80m I would give you a different answer but you need to look at the value for money. ‘If Manchester United get the right players around him I think he will be the best summer signing.’ Jaissle’s first Premier League game in charge of Newcastle United will be a tricky clash against Liverpool on the opening weekend of the season.
