The new revolution of the Premier called Unai Emery

The Spanish coach has achieved 77 points in his first 38 league games with the Villains. The so-called Big Six of the Premier League has been sneaked by a team that, like Chelsea, also carries a lion on its shield but whose army wears blue... and maroon. As Aston Villa himself says, Unai Emery’s claret and blue army. If the Premier League is led by a San Sebastian native, the Champions League is opposed by a Honduran native. A candidacy that, if in 2022-2023 was already serious, in the current campaign is, thanks to the Spanish coach, more than a reality.

The three points that were at stake at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium ended up traveling back to Birmingham and, with them, the Villans have made the leap to fourth place. Unai Emery's pupils overturned Giovani Lo Celso's initial goal in north London (1-2) and tied with Liverpool, third in the Premier League, on 28 points. And hand in hand with the 4th place currently held by the Villa Park team comes four pieces of information that praise, even more so, the work of the Spanish coach at Aston Villa.

The Birmingham team, which managed to qualify for the Conference League last year, not only leads Tottenham by two points and equals those of Jürgen Klopp's team, but just two points separate Unai Emery's team (28) from the leader of the Premier League, Mikel Arteta's Arsenal (30).

The victory against the Spurs, in addition to three points, has given the villains a new record. With the victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Aston Villa has won 22 Premier League games in all of 2023, more than in any calendar year in its history. In this way, Unai Emery's pupils still have one more month and seven days to bring this figure to levels that are difficult to compare.

Unmatched

Last year the Villans had to be content with the third continental competition, since in the 38 Premier League games prior to the arrival of the Spanish coach, Aston Villa achieved 44 points. But, this season, the Champions League is a real goal. So much so that, according to Opta, Aston Villa will finish the day among the top four in the Premier League, after 13 games played, for the first time since December 27, 2009.
