In football, chances rarely exist. Unai Emery’s Aston Villa are fighting for nothing more or less than competing in the Champions League next season because they know what they want and how they want to achieve it.
The Hondarribia coach’s students play from memory and have fun on the pitch. They know what their weapons are and they use them to perfection. In the first half against Nottingham Forest, they destroyed Nuno’s men, with a resounding 3-1 lead at half-time thanks to a goal from Watkins and a double from Douglas Luiz.
The second target is not only different, but it is one that helps to understand the level of confidence of the ‘villain’ players and to what extent they have acquired the football ideas of the former coach of Villarreal, Arsenal, Sevilla and PSG between others.
In the first goal, Bailey scored a great individual play with a double pipe so Watkins just had to push it.
