Product Information

Before the match we were speaking about the opportunity to win or not win. After the match we played in Nottingham against Forest away -we were speaking about how we can continue improving our mentality and keeping consistent. We shouldn't be accepting sometimes when we are losing.

We know realistically they won’t be there at the end challenging for the title, but at this moment why not dream and think this can happen?"

Pedro Porro has assisted six goals in the Premier League. The only defenders with more assists in the competition than the Spaniard since his debut in February are Trent Alexander-Arnold and Kieran Trippier (both nine). Manchester United's players looked stunned by Villa's fast start and did not register a meaningful effort until midway through the first half, when Alejandro Garnacho's shot from an angle was well saved by Emi Martinez. Brighton thought they had scored when Deniz Undav volleyed in, but Julio Enciso was adjudged by the video assistant referee to have been offside in the build-up. Villa are expected to have a busy summer as Unai Emery looks to bring in signings of his own. The club have already been linked with several potential signings, with the latest being Southampton's Armel Bella-Kotchap.

For Brighton, this has been the best league season in their 122-year history. With sixth place already assured, the Seagulls have qualified for the Europa League - their first European campaign.Villa took the lead through Adriana Leon before Lisa Evans looked to have earned West Ham a point with a brilliant half-volley. Steve: Could have been 5-2 at half-time. Villa just not owning the middle of the park. Big changes by Emery. All of a sudden, Bailey looked a threat and Spurs got tired chasing. In the end, Villa's second-half performance won them the match. The absence of captain Dagny Brynjarsdottir, who is on maternity leave for the 2023-24 season, has deprived them of vital experience in the centre of midfield and leadership on the pitch. But Pau Torres levelled with a header deep into first-half added time before Ollie Watkins slotted in his 12th goal of the season to seal Villa's turnaround.

Emery's impact was immediately clear as his side played with a pace and dynamism that pulled Manchester United apart. Despite a nervous second half against Brighton, they held on to the victory they needed to spark celebrations in the stands. Ronaldo was not as influential as his manager would have perhaps liked, although no Manchester United player covered themselves in glory in their dreadful start to the game.

Key Events

Steven Gerrard paid the price for a disappointing start to the season, but Villa wasted no time in bringing in his replacement. When Asseyi sent Domselaar the wrong way from the spot with a low finish into the bottom-left corner West Ham should have gained enough confidence to control the game. Villa are also exploring the possibility of appointing Sevilla's sporting director Monchi, following Mateu Alemany's decision to stay at Barcelona. Both factors were prevalent in earning Villa’s pivotal win at Tottenham, in a game that could have been lost by the half-time whistle.

Well, if they get any kind of positive result against Arsenal and/or Manchester City at Villa Park in the next fortnight, then expect Villa supporters to say, increasingly loudly: "It's game on!" However, the stark reality is that West Ham have failed to win any of their last 10 home league matches.

Tottenham were top of the Premier League table after their first 10 games but are now below Villa after victory in north London sent Unai Emery's them above them into fourth place. It has been a difficult start to the WSL campaign for West Ham, and they have taken just one win in seven matches, leaving them above bottom side Bristol City only on goal difference. The final whistle prompted players to hug each other while Emery and his coaching staff did likewise amid incredible noise from the home fans. BirminghamLive understands Monchi is one of the names under consideration to work with Unai Emery and the club's recruitment team. Barcelona director Mateu Alemany had an agreement in principle to join Villa last month, but returned to Catalonia after his proposed move broke down. While the likes of Spurs, Brighton and Newcastle United have growing injury lists, with the long-awaited return of both Alex Moreno and Jacob Ramsey, Villa now have arguably the best matchday squad in terms of quality of depth they've ever had.
