Premier League We Will Be Well Prepared For Man United- Emery Declares

Despite their dismal start to the season, Aston Villa manager Unai Emery is taking Manchester United seriously and stated he would prepare more for Sunday’s Premier League match than he did for their Champions League victory over Bayern Munich midweek.

Villa is on a roll after defeating Bayern 1-0 on Wednesday.

In their previous seven games in all competitions, they have six wins and one draw.

Even though Erik ten Hag’s club is currently 13th in the league standings, Emery’s team has lost their last four games against United, and the Spanish coach has warned that the FA Cup winners from the previous season would present a formidable challenge at Villa Park.

“They are a winning team.

“They have an experienced coach, experienced players.

The club is usually a winning club. They are still winners, last year they won the FA Cup,” Emery told reporters on Friday.

“They are not getting consistently good results in the Premier League, but in one match they can exploit their capacity and have a huge performance.

“I respect them and I will prepare the match more than how I prepared the match against Bayern Munich.”

Emery stated that it is difficult to remain competitive in Europe’s premier club competition and place in the top four, having not participated in the Champions League in 41 years.

However, the Villa manager stated that consistency in the Premier League remained their first aim.

We are not favourites to be in the top seven of the Premier League. We want to be a contender and we are in the process of getting points,” said Emery, whose side are fifth with 13 points.

The process started with the results we’ve had for the last two years, we are now involved in the Champions League, but consistency is the most important thing. That starts on the pitch.

“There are a lot of examples of how difficult it is to stay competitive and be consistent in Europe.

” How do we get into Europe? Through the Premier League.

“Staying consistent in the Premier League is the first objective I have.”

Emery stated that although both winger Leon Bailey and midfielder Jacob Ramsey are questionable for the match, Villa will evaluate their health.
