Popular Post M_Afro Posted March 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2023 I love Unai. His press conferences are fantastic. I love his enthusiasm and will to win. His commitment and dedication are outstanding. He is miles ahead of any other manager we have ever had. These are such exciting times for us. I wouldn’t be surprised if we were to win something next season. He is elite in every way. Love him. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWARLEY2 Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 The one thing we can say that we havent been able to in years about a manager is that the jurys NOT out on him. Theres not much you can throw at him other than the cup losses. We are going to have some games where we lose because the opposition is simply better, but we can see clearly the progress being made for once. In terms of tactics and identity we can all see what he is doing and why he is doing it. And in terms of players being better than before we can see Luiz Kamara Mings Watkins and McGinn clearly improving. Great to see. We have some really talented players at our club. And emery is bringing in the consistency to allow them to shine . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Wezbid Posted March 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2023 There's so little stress in checking the line-ups for games these days. Even if I think one player should be playing over another. These days you know that the players are drilled and coached to challenge regardless of line-up. The guy is next level, the fact he's so humble and enthusiastic about this job is wonderful to see. Even the worst clubs now have really good/great players. Having a manager who can outsmart/coach others is huge and we have someone who thrives on it. We're so lucky to have him but at the same time, he's somewhat lucky to have so much potential ready to catapult. We're a perfect match. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a perfect record against Southampton comprising two home wins (4-0 and 1-0). Edit: I would like to add that I am not an apologist for the slippy one. My disappointment concerning his sacking was that they didn't let me do it! Edited March 31, 2023 by Stephen_Evans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catanzaro Posted March 30, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted March 30, 2023 I’m all in!! Because of the attitude and style he has implemented.. they’re both totally sustainable.. when we get to the point of challenging the top four.. which we will soon, there will not be a drop off in March like with MON.. and we will still be able to compete in the cups.. .. anyone who has to manage will see this to be true.. He is the best manager since we were the first division champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against Arsenal and Leicester...where I thought we were ok in both. But he didn't rant or rave, just said he was very unhappy and clearly worked with the team on XYZ. He has the vision and ability to fix things, not just saying "that's not good enough, do better" 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He then can tactically tweak parts of what he is doing in training and in games from this. Always being open to learning from others, compared to some of our former managers. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 The other really good thing about his appointment is that improvements will have to happen quickly . As much to keep him interested. There will be no more keeping our powder dry i don't think. The owners obviously offered him the financial backing to get back into Europe. And if he is managing our club to hit the targets set by the board then he will be expecting the backing in return. Next year is likely to be his first year out of Europe unless we can go on another big run. I doubt he will be happy to go without for 2 seasons. This is why we might sell players we did not expect to . To strengthen other areas and remain within ffp rules. We have to be in a rush now and with pretty much half the average revenue of the normal big(ger) 6 we have to think outside the box and make big decisions. Selling one of our best players for say 50 and then buying 2 at 25 each from the spanish league might well be the way Emery wants to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Keyblade Posted March 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 31, 2023 I love him. I can't believe he's our coach sometimes. When I look at Spurs and their search for a manager, it's crazy to think "we, Aston Villa have Unai Emery", a better manager than they can realistically hope to get. I hope we make the most of this opportunity 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Needs to be backed. If he wants 3 players for £120-150m, he needs to get them to move the team forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
