Unai Emery makes admission about Aston Villa players’ ‘performance level’ after Liverpool defeat

Unai Emery spoke about the recent defeat and performance of Aston Villa after their match against Liverpool.

Unai Emery said, “Liverpool dominated sometimes but they did not have a lot of clear chances to score. We did our work and we had the chances to score in the first half, in the second half, and we played more or less in the way I wanted.”

Unai Emery reflected on the current standing and competitive nature of the Premier League and the performance levels of some players compared to last season.

Unai Emery said, “Some players are not in the same performance level as last year but today they were a bit better. The league is tight, there are a lot of teams performing very well and we have to accept that we need to improve. We have to try to keep the same positive attitude and mentality and try to accept sometimes results that we have had this week happen.”
