Foundation for success under driven Unai Emery at Aston Villa | OneFootball

There are a lot of potential travel options for Aston Villa fans in the upcoming weeks. Between traveling to Wembley or attending the PSG matchup in Paris, there are a number of big-time fixtures to look forward to. Under Unai Emery, there is legitimate hope around the club.

This, furthermore, looks far from a one-off. The Spaniard continues to impress and get results. With him in charge, players are getting international call-ups, and the club is positioned to fill the trophy cabinet. More importantly, there is a sense that the product on the field continues to improve.

With the energy levels and attention to detail of Emery, the manager continues to drive the side forward. The fear of settling or becoming complacent from the latest successes isn't a fear with him in charge. Even after the latest win against Preston North End in the FA Cup, he underlined the need to stay composed and prepare for the next opponent.

The continued internal force that stems from the Spaniard will allow Villa to credibly challenge the top clubs in England and soon enough, Europe, for a long time to come. He has brought an enhanced level of professionalism and direction to the Midlands.

His pairing with Monchi makes it so that any questions of sustainability are far from mind. Yes, this year needs to result in silverware. If, however, the opposition proves to be too much this year, there isn't too much doubt about the repeated ability of this club to stay in contention deep into the campaign on an annual basis.
