They’ve been truly impressive. They’ve by far exceeded the expectations of a lot of people. It’s a possibility that Arsenal may have underestimated their opponents and when Aston villa scored their early and only goal, they found it really difficult to score. That is despite having more time with the ball, they couldn’t equalize as Aston villa made sure to defend like hell and they got the win later on.
I had thought it would be kinda of an easy win for Arsenal but Aston Villa, with their win, proved they shouldn’t be taken lightly.
Thrilling victories have become the order of the day for the villa team. Aston Villa survived, with Unai Emery passing two consecutive tough tests this season, facing two elite topping clubs and winning both of them hands down. Aston have breaken to be in 3rd position and not relenting, rather theyre sticking to just one particular game pattern. Unai Emery is a tactical and he thoroughly understands how to manage mediocre clubs. Aston Villa are not among competitive clubs this season, just good with early scoring and then locking defensive strategy all through.
