sheepyvillian Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 There's only one manager truly deserving of a statue outside VP, and his surname is "Saunders". 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Your Round Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Very much deserved manager of the month, manager of the year too, and future manager of the decade after winning all domestic trophies and taking Villa to their second European Cup win.

villan-scott Posted January 13 VT Supporter Share Posted January 13 Absolutely love his passion. He ignites when talking about the game, what he expects and how to navigate it. He’s a phenomenon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a phenomenon! The really exciting thing is that level of expectation could be very oppressive for the players but in fact they seem to love it and respond well.

He’s a phenomenon! And when Emery is congratulated upon Manager of the Month, Emery stays classy and humble by saying it's for the staff, the club, the players and the fans. Emery is self-effacing, again Villa are on the rise and this is only the beginning of hopefully a very long relationship together with him as the Manager. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Just watching the sky sports news interview with him. Legend. He speaks about Konsa and how he believes in him more than Konsa believes in himself ! And how he can be better going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talldarkandransome Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Has to be one of the nicest people in football. Always respectful, doesn't badger or criticise refs, doesn't moan about stuff if we don't win. Demands more from everyone, understands how important the fans are. He's humble and very very knowledgeable. It will be a great day when we win something with Unai at the helm 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWARLEY2 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 His hair tells you everything you need to know about him. Too busy for a haircut. It's not about him in any way. Well, it is but on a personal level. He has a huge drive to succeed internally but not on a media level. Nothing matters more than winning football matches for Aston Villa Football Club. Not the project. Not injuries, not VAR. Whatever the issue, he knows his job is to win. Thats it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a fabulous manager. Under "driven" in the OED, just stick a picture of Unai there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 When one of the reporters asked Unai if he expects Everton to defend deep, his response had me laughing out loud. It was something like, "we are anylising them, watching movies." I'm trying to think of a movie that resembles Everton's playing style. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
