Quotes

"They are very good in the build-up with fantastic players: Morgan Rogers, Ollie Watkins, Donyell Malen... it is a top team. They are growing. What he [Unai Emery] created at Villa is fantastic in so many areas.
"They did well in the Champions League last season and almost qualified again, which is very impressive... they have a very strong team."
