I think he's saying people should be content with content demonstrating that Unai is content not providing content. That's how I understand it anyway.

I have caught myself using this expression, outside of Villa context, without realizing that no one gets this reference and just think I'm a pretentious prick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just need to look me in the eye from time to time and realise we go again. For sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Just looking at JPB and TI threads, it’s clear we have some talented youngers and obviously it’s an area the club have invested heavily in. Without following Emery’s career as intently as some, what’s he’s track record of playing young players? I notice from some of spurious transfer links to some Villareal players (especially the wingers) that some of them are very young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure when he was at Arsenal, he was responsible for handing debuts to Saka, Smith-Rowe, Nketiah, Willock and Nelson as well? I think he is not afraid of trusting young players. So youth players should feel encouraged that he'll give them a good look. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever people say about the wealth of our owners, it’s clear for various reasons we won’t be completing financially with those at the top of the tree so being able supplement any spending with youth progression is going to be key. Still can’t flipping believe this bloke is our manager. Is it fair to say that this bloke is the best manager we’ve ever appointed? But best I mean his standing in the game. I know people lucky enough to have been around in 81/82 with talk about the achievements of Saunders/Barton, but neither had a CV like this this guys when we appointed them.

The Fun Factory Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 (edited) BFR was a big name, and at the time most of us was quite excited when MON joined the Villa, even with the nagging feeling that Scottish Football isn't that good.

Jas10 Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 He probably favours younger players due to them being more open and willing to listen and take instructions on board… whereas some older players have an ego and are less likely to be agreeable at times… although he has utilised older players too and they have become important cogs in his teams… Younger players tend to be more pacy and energetic too… It’s about finding the right balance and having the right elements/attributes in key areas. I think he will add pace and physicality to our side… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MON had good experience in the PL with Leicester, winning them 2 cups if I remember correctly. A reverse Rodgers if you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
