From an Arsenal fan, Unai was a top manager that came to Arsenal at the wrong time. Wish him all the best. Massive upgrade on Gerrard
Upgrade?!? That wouldn’t be hard 😅
@@knownpleasures Yes... that’s why he said massive upgrade 🤷🏻♂️
this aged so well
Back here after we have won 6 away games on the bounce and climbed up into 7th in the premier league from 17th when unai took over..the man is an absolutely class coach and was at arsenal at the wrong time for us to get him in is our best bit of business in years UTV
Unbeaten in 10 now and we sit in 5th. Unai is legendary.
How you feeling now big boss
Man City hahahha
Arsenal. 3rd now.
Just popping back for a rewatch I couldn't quite remember what was said. Oh yeah, I remember now 😂😂😂😂
He didn't fold, the Arsenal team did and it carried on after he left only up until recently. He then proved himself again at Villarreal, great appointment for Villa.
Unai Mr Villa himself!!!
SeVILLA, VILLAreal, Aston VILLA
Officially redneck .
Like it .
Gud ebenin
It’s a shame that Villa-Boas was never the Villa boss though.
Unai emery lover of villas boas
Unai Emery is a top class manager. Great appointment by Villa. Shows their ambition
Lol
Ordinarily yes... But in a relagation scrap? Not exactly Emery's forte. Big risk by Villa
@@nickmildon6348 nonsense😂 relegation specialists are a cliche
@@nickmildon6348 It's way too early to say any team is in a relegation scrap yet.
lol. brilliant at arsenal, ha ha
As an Arsenal fan, I wish Unai Emery luck and hope it works out for him at Villa. He was never properly backed with signings and given a fair chance at Arsenal. The board expected a top 4 finish but wouldn't get him the players he wanted/needed to achieve that, instead spending £72 Million on a player that he didn't want. Emery also had to deal with a "don't care" culture and attitude of some of the players. He did have some useful contributions, opting to keep some of the emerging young players and giving them game time in the Europa League, rather than them being loaned out, which proved to be a good decision. The players that he did want and manage to sign worked out, including recently, William Saliba.
Wait and see if he's backed at villa
Language was an issue at Arsenal, players were confused by his training methods and tactics and he eventually lost the dressing room. Too many fan’s and media ridiculed his accent/English. I wish him well back in the PL.
As an arsenal fan I can say that he had a poison chalice given to him coming after wenger. He’s a good manager who is gonna bring success to villa wish him the best.
this has aged well lol
It's interesting watching this back now and seeing how Emery is proving everyone wrong so far
This is massive for Aston Villa. Absolutely Massive and people are saying about Sean dyche😂😂 they have just signed a top manager
They can appoint whoever they want . If the PLAYERS mostly , and the fans and board don’t gove the manager any time . Then you can bring in jose kloppiola and you will have the same outcome .
@@Sherrie510 Villa fans often do before thinking no doubt hes a good manager but managing a relegation battle, players will pull toys out pushchair if not getting own way either.
Yawn
@@Sherrie510 haha Jose kloppiola is hilarious 🤣
@@ashington1779 looks like you have a trouble maker in Mings in the camp . Why did Gerrard feel the need to go public with this ?
He must have been so much of a disruption. And to boot he reminds me of David James the goalie always a couple of moments away from a howler .
Gerrard was unlucky with the injury of his big centre half new signing .
Sometimes things don’t work out . But the attitude of some of your players especially after picking up tools against Brentford is something for Emry to be very weary off .
It’s nice to see other Arsenal supporters with warm regards to Emery - I also think he is really good - just landed in Arsenal at the wrong time
"Dystopian Arsenal"- Simon Jordan turning Highbury into a JG Ballard novel.
"Empire of the Dumb"
That's a hell of a reference
Mind blowing reference that 👏
As an Unai Emery fan, thanks to all the Arsenal fans.
Hey, Simon. Let's have your updated opinion with Villa sitting in 6th.
Lets here it now 😂
What an amazing appointment he's been, only Man City have more points than Villa in 2023. Really excited to see him make a few big money signings and then hopefully we can make a proper push for top 4 next season. Most exciting time to be a Villa fan for a long time, just hope the owners go big and let him sign whoever he needs.
Proving how good he is right now. Villa 3 Newcastle 0
One the best coaches in the world
Unai Emery is a very experienced top coach.
He failed because of the toxic environment at Arsenal with certain top players making life difficult for him.
He brought through the likes of Saka & Smith Rowe. He never wanted Pepe the flop.
Good luck Unai👍🏻
It’s funny that people say Emery failed at Arsenal when he finished 5th and got them to a European final, ok he didn’t get champions league football but any manager who replaced Wenger would’ve struggled.
I Think that Unai has proven that this was a great appointment. Villa now in 6th place, players revitalised, consistency in performances and winning games they would not have won under Gerrard. The expectation was to finish as high up the table as possible which was achieved. The next expectation was to finish top half which looks like a very good possibility. The next expectation is to challenge for a place in Europe and its game on. Emery has answered all the questions asked about his appointment in the best way he could have. UTV
5th now. Emery is unreal in what he's done to us.
"folded like a cheap deck of chairs"? Disrespectful to someone who was 1 win (domestically & europe) away from taking Arsenal (back) to the Champions league. He was neither given the time nor the investment.
The investment wasn't terrible, but the recruitment was extremely poor. The fact that there are barely a handful of players in the squad remaining now after his tenure says everything.
Arsenal also had a different director of football then who if I recall seemed to be signing his mates that were agents players.
I think Emery was in a position where it was the inmates running the asylum at Arsenal and was basically thrown under the bus. Once the media AFTV and sections of the fans were hounding him it was curtains.
They can appoint whoever they want . If the PLAYERS mostly , and the fans and board don’t give the manager any time ,Then you can bring in Jose kloppiola and you will have the same outcome .
@@Sherrie510 If you give a senior coach almost a year of matches then see the results are worsening not better then it's time enough. The same thing applies to any management job, no results, thanks and goodbye.
@@geoffreycodnett6570 shuffle off Geoffrey there’s a good boy now .
The money thing is villa not being wreckless,brought in enough to try and get top ten then they'll pump more in once we are achieving that I think.
lol no way
I think our owners would of splashed the cash a lot more this summer but Gerrard wasn't doing great end of last season & was struggling before the summer window closed, so it's prudent that the owners didn't sanction breaking our transfer budget for a manager who was already looking shakey & future was in doubt. If Gerrard turned things around I believe he would of been backed fully in January but if he didn't, then that prudence, leaves available cash for a new manager in January without having to really worry about FFP & have that effect transfers, because the owners, gave Gerrard a big transfer pot in the summer.
Great appointment.
Hes a real upgrade I'd personally be very happy if I was a villa fan. If the players fall in and do as he says he could make them a solid team one day.
Still amazing to think that Simon Jordan believes Gerrard signed Douglas Luiz 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You ok Simon? What are your thoughts now????
Simon failing to grasp just how remarkable what Emery did for the clubs he managed in Spain, is prime Jordan. La Liga is as much a 2 horse race as that in Scotland. That Emery has repeatedly bucked that tilted table is worthy of respect.
he doesn't know jot about la Liga
He hasn’t won la liga he hasn’t bucked the table at all what are you on about
And the Epl is a 1 horse race as in Germany.
He hasn't bucked La Liga at all. What on earth are you rambling about?
Villa's net spend since promotion is almost £300m
2019/20 = £140m
2020/21 = £90m
2021/22 = £2m ( offset by Grealish cash )
2022/23 = £63m
If you talk about what we've spent gross during those 4 summer windows and 3 January windows then its more like £450m
The owners have backed Smith and Gerrard with cash.
I agree and the problem is that some of the buying has been on players who are no better than some already there. Gerrard seems to have loaned out players some of whom would have benefitted the club by being introduced into the senior squad in training at least.
@@geoffreycodnett6570 im not to sure the managers get the players they want, they probably say what position and lange looks for them
They backed smith massively and he spent on without any direction and gerrard wasn’t given time , I don’t know what Villa expect as there not a huge club
how clueless😂
He came to arsenal at a terrible time when the club was in turmoil after Wenger left. He still managed to finish 5th, won the fa cup and got to the Europa League final. Look at Utd after fergie left. It's taken them some very good managers like van gaal and mourinho to finally get to what looks like a good manager in ten Haag. I think he's a very good manager and as a villa fan, I'm delighted with his appointment. Best manager we've had in years
He didn't win the fa cup but overall his first season was decent he's a great manager.
Wish him best of luck
@@harrypack1366 He started the campaign tho and then arteta took over and received all the glory
Toon fan fate served us well this time Howe is a brilliant manager ⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️👍
Simon ever the optimist
Its a fantastic decision
Good manager harshly dealt with by Arsenal
They can appoint whoever they want . If the PLAYERS mostly , and the fans and board don’t give the manager any time , then you can bring in Jose kloppiola and you will have the same outcome .
Just thought I would pop back just to hear Mr Mr Jordan's wise words
Safe to say he's going pretty well back in the premier league
I didn't realize that the Chairman stopped him. I thought he pulled out. Ok as a NUFC fan I forgive him 😂
This aged well lol
He’s one of the best coaches in the World
Emery is a class act and had the Arsenal team ticking for a long period of his first season. Took us to a Europa League final as well.
Great appointment for Villa.
people tend to forget that his director of football was laundering money out of the club through suspect transfers that lined his pockets. we as a club were completely dysfunctional. i only worry about the language barrier, other than that hes a top manager.
Gerrard didn't sign luiz.
I'm exited to have Unai Emery as our manager he brings experience and he's a winner. UTV
Arsenal was always going to be an impossible job after Wenger, just like Man utd after Ferguson. I believe he will do good, his 4-2-3-1 formation suits Villa and the players we currently have. There won't be massive pressure of managing an 'elite club' and I believe he will be given the time to build something. Gerrard was always going to be out of his depth and the blame has to go onto the CEO purslow, he will be very lucky to be CEO by the end of the year.
Purslow is a brilliant CEO. Doesn’t deserve to get the sack for one mistake.
Gerrard wasn’t ready yet but I think he has corrected his mistake with Unai Emery
He was really good getting those big marketing deals for Liverpool and Chelsea maybe he’s just suited for those roles which is great you can be the marketing head just leave the football decisions to someone else who’s more experienced right?
@@ahmedibrahim5800 I get your point but I don't think it's just one mistake, he has failed with setting up a decent player recruitment and I just don't think he has enough footballing knowledge to set up the crucial areas of a club, business wise he is great but him appointing Gerrard just shows how naive he is in terms of the football side
They can appoint whoever they want . If the PLAYERS mostly , and the fans and board don’t give the manager any time ,Then you can bring in Jose kloppiola and you will have the same outcome .
villa is a big club, 6th most successful in england coming before spurs too
I always thought the whole thing with Emery and Newcastle was him flirting with it to get himself a bit of job security and an extended contract at Villarreal during a time he was doing well in the Champions League but poorly in the La Liga
He failed at both PSG and Arsenal by their own respective objectives. He isn't meant for bigger clubs but teams like Villareal, Sevilla, Villa are perfect for both parties.
Aged like fine milk
I understand what Simon is saying but the squad Villa have now is better than when we came up. Villa owners have also said that they want to build and they have a five year plan. Gerrard has set us back but I believe that with Emery as manager now Villa will be shopping in a better market than before. We must also remember that no player with high regard would come to Villa unless we could show where we want to be so the next two seasons will be seasons of growth for the Villa and then we will be spending the kind of money for top talent
Villa are in top 10 of net spenders in Europe since 2017. Its not difficult to find that information
True but the players they sold were pure profit, it's not like grealish cost 100m and they sold him for 100m so they just got back what they paid, it was pure profit and they spent it.
Liverpool have a low bet spend but if you spend 90m on an Andy Carroll like player you're going to get criticised.
You can have a low net spend AND waste money. It's not either/or.
@@-The-Darkside They are still in top 10 of net spenders regardless- hardly a lack of drive or intent from NSWE
I'm not sure where Simon got his facts from here. Villa owners have spent roughly 375million since they got Villa to the Premier League. They sold Grealish and made a profit of 100M which helped them re financial fair play rules ( it actually needed to happen) to avoid trouble I'm surprised by Simons comments he's normally very astute.
In fact Villa were 4th biggest net spenders in November 2021; baffling why people have missed it!!!
4) Aston Villa (£205.11m)
Ouch ouch ouch. Even with the £100m sale of Jack Grealish, that is an awful lot of money. An awful lot of money. And that is why Dean Smith is under real pressure as Villa sit in 15th place having just lost at home to West Ham.
Look at their spending since 2000
I think the AV owners will spend, they first have to judge if an appointed manager is good enough. If SG could have improved the team then, I'm guessing, the next stage would have been to offer him more money to spend on 'bigger' players. Same rules, I think, will apply to UE.
Sadly, it didn't work out with us but there's is no ill feeling towards him from me & I hope he is successful with Villa except when playing us of course
The title had me laughing before I even clicked on. 😂😂🤦🏾♂️
"He folded like a cheap deckchair". 🤣
Good Abternoon!
I wish unai emery all the best he did OK at arsenal but unfortunately it didn't work out but he showed class at arsenal and had respect for the club arsenal fan
as an Arsenal fan I am worried. He is too good
As an Arsenal fan, I would have gone for Viera or Emery above Arteta as the latter had no experience. Luckily Arteta has been given and picked up some experience.
Think we've got in a very good manager here. Last season sacking Smith for Gerrard we sacked a better manager than we replaced and I have always been in that camp. Now I think it's an obvious upgrade bringing in Emery. Has a good squad to work with aswell. Feeling positive about this grab. UTV
Smith was very good at Championship level and has now tasted the PL before going down with Norwich. If he can repeat the process with them he will then be a better candidate for PL teams generally. There was a feeling the owners wanted a "name" manager but Smith proved too good to sack. They went for Gerrard for his greater publicity and attraction for talent. Now they have to start again. Danks is a professional coach rather than ex footballer so his experience is why he produced a better result.
Nailed it, I would of kept Deano over Gerrard and said as much at the time. If at the time they sacked Deano and brought in Emery, I would of been fair play you can't argue they have replaced deano with a better manager with more experience
Can't wait to hear *Good Ebening* again!
His first season at arsenal wasn't bad he went to Europe league finals... he is a good manager I think the arsenal fans didn't give him enough time
The football was not good at all towards the end but he did get treated harshly
@@tolubewaji8766 he had a better first season than arteta..22 games unbeaten ... I remember a goal the team scored against fulham...the build up play was exceptional
@@SamSulek_Life shut up you are not an Arsenal just keep quiet
@@SamSulek_Life Nah, overall we played some terrible football under Emery. Especially away from home. Absolutely TERRIBLE performances
@@xaviermalcolm8481 But better results. Then again, Arsenal always did want to be pretty over successful, which is fair enough but it also means that it's harder to be at the top for a longer period of time.
Nice to hear someone talking sense about Emery.
As a Arsenal fan this is HUGE FOR Aston villa hope they back him in January
100 mil supposedly, I'm sure it includes summer too but will deffo be backed
@@jawairiya257 try 50 million
@@makwenamashamaite5064 no he'll be given 100 million for transfers, 50 mil these days will get you a quality players left toe
@@jawairiya257 Haaland cost what?
@@paulenglish7500 51m fee up front, then millions in agent fees, and then onto his wages, 350k+ weekly plus bonuses. I see you're a Newcastle fan, see you guys spent 67 mil on Isak, quality player but wouldn't you have rather got haaland for the same amount if you could. Quality proven players nowadays cost a lot more
Quite happy we didn't get him at Newcastle considering what's happened since Howe came in. Best of luck to him at Villa though.
Waiting for Darren Farley's first video on this
Connor Moore is better
@@Jakealexcliff better impression, but nowhere near as funny as Farley…agent Rafa was one of the funniest characters I’ve seen for a long time.
@@Jakealexcliff I really enjoy watching them both.
@@Jakealexcliff but his content is DEAD in comparison.
There is a Farley video already!
Check his page 🤣🤣🤣
It’s been noted that unai was never backed (zaha) to what he wanted. His higher ups at the gunners were all sacked for negligence as well. That man is by no means a bad coach or poor appointment. Arteta walked in and got rid of all the people and staff that weren’t the standard. So for me it’s really unfair to doubt Emery’s credentials now. He did a great Job at Villarreal if we’re being honest. Think of it like this his greeting to the media is what ridiculed him towards the end. He’s the perfect coach for a club like villa. PS since then it’s taken years for arsenal to be a club that wasn’t considered in its banter era.
I’m here from the future - Emery has taken villa into the champions league, taken 6 points from Arsenal which prevented them from winning the league oh and he’s just signed a new 5 year contract
Aston Villa aint gonna play European competitions anytime soon. they should hire someone with knowledge of epl. however i think Unai made a huge step back going there.
at it, on it and across it
The press and tubes like aftv had a huge part in him not working for Arsenal
Won decent trophies at 3 clubs, europa league 4 times, and was harshly treated at PSG. Definite upgrade on Gerrard. Villa won't give him alot of time to implement his world class coaching, so if he fails it's likely to be a deep rooted problem within the club. But it's not Emery that needs to be questioned, it's Aston Villa's previous recruitment that needs highlighting.
How have they managed that? Very ambitious move.
Not really
offered him a boatload of money lol pretty simple
7m per year of course he accepted it
money
How did Manchester City manage this sort of thing when they started their upwards journey! I'm surprised at this kind of comment, if a club has extremely wealthy owners "and Villa do" there is no reason why they can't do it. By the way it's a huge Football club ( unless of course you're about 30 years of age and only know Liverpool Man U, City and Chelsea lol
There are not many managers who can do it in any league. Some can, but there are plenty of good managers out there, who can only do it in one league.
Fantastic appointment for the villa they will be up there soon enough just wait
We need a reality check here, Aston Villa are no way near the size and scale of Arsenal lets get real. Villa are great club that have won the European Cup back in the day but lets be honest its not a big club in that fashion. If he had success at Seville or Villareal, he’d do fine at Villa
Good Ebening
I think Unai is a Villain for sure. seVILLA VILLAreal astonVILLA
Well he got Martinez & Chambers back.
It's easy to say Emery's Arsenal "folded like a deckchair" and to be honest they did but he was one win away from the Champions league both in the PL and Europa
Contrast that to Wenger's last season just before that (the 2017/18 season). They finished 12 points off the Champions League places, remained 6th from Christmas until May, and until their final game of the season against Huddersfield they were the only team in England's top four divisions without a single point away from home in 2018
And prior to that season, wenger secured ucl football every season with far less resources than all the other elite clubs in the premier league. It makes me laugh when i hear everyone saying all the time we must get 4, we must get top 4! Wenger did it season after season and got ridiculed for it ffs!!!
@@colingeddes2172 Yes he did have less money to spend than the likes of United city and Chelsea but let's be honest in those years they got top 4, they rarely faced much competition from other clubs bar Spurs for a few seasons, Everton usually got off to slow starts, Bolton were decent under Sam Allardyce but at the end of the day weren't going to gatecrash top 4, Aston Villa were alright but ultimately always fell short
@@colingeddes2172 It's the Arsenal obsession with pretty football, which was also Emery's downfall. It's admirable but it also means a longer wait for sustained success, as the Fergie vs Wenger and George Graham days example. Not everyone can play like City....or spend like City to get there...
@@uptwisting in all fairness nobody can compete wirh man city financialy or their style of play. B4 pep arrived at man city, it was chelsea who had the financial clout and arsenal who played the purist football. Can u imagine mourinho managing chelsea with a transfer embargo like lampard had to in his 1st season.
@@colingeddes2172 Of course but it's no surprise that Arteta, who worked with Pep needed time to get players adjusted to that style. City dominance is closely tied to how they play and if we're honest, their spending isnt insane for a top team, plus they buy and let go many players, rather than just buying world 'stars'.
I think you can put a better crop of players together in LaLiga, for cheaper too.
Brilliant work from the owners. Emery is an excellent manager. He's light years ahead of Gerrard tactically.
great comment
His teams could send a glass eye to sleep.
Jordan talking about Villa spending. he seems to forget FFP. We couldn't just come up from the championship and spend silly money. The owners want the club to be run sustainably. We don't have any dodgy state sponsorship deals. There are plans to increase the ground capacity. The club as a whole is about rebuilding while not getting carried away and ahead of ourselves. slow steady improvement is what is expected. Gerrard took us backwards. Forget Emery at Arsenal. He has proved time and time again he is a good manager. If he can get us an improvement on last season then the owners will have no issues backing him financially.
Gud ebening
As a newcastle supporter so glad he didn’t come, howe was exactly what we needed at that time and for the future
I think he could be a better fit for villa, i think he is tactically and man management light years ahead of gerard. His time at arsenal was when the board had empowered a bunch of overrated individuals and not the manager they have done with arteta and look at them now
Howe better then Emery 😂😂😂
Nobody asked you
@@BridgeStamford he said a better fit for villa.
The only negative on having Howe over Unai is the fact Howe can't attract elite players as easy as Emery would. You'll realise you have to pay serious transfer fees or high wages to get the to play for Howe.
Howe was certainly the man of the moment. Most considered Newcastle down and out. Emery may have done the job but he didn't want it for personal reasons. A brilliant job as a result and glad to see you up there. I remember many Villa v Newcastle matches and their supporters are among the best. Like true Villans they expect a team to try, even if they lose.
Good luck Emery working with the faithful professional Mings.
Look at what he has done with Villa within a space of a year. Undoing Gerard's mess, and implementing his own methods into the team. Arsenal let him down, we let him down but I knew right there and then that Villa will play Champions League soon the moment they signed Emery. He is a genius. I don't think there has been a manager ever who has a specialty of managing smaller teams, and making them perform better than they even should with a lesser budget and finishing high with them and winning silverware too on the side. He had aspell with Valencia, Villareal, Sevilla, and now Villa.
Hes got to be better than Gerrard. Regarding spend I think they've started cautiously, which looking at it now looks very astute.
Good ebening is backkkk!!! Yaaay!
Good ebening
Great ebening to be a villa fan
It's a great appointment for Villa, so long as Villa fans don't have unrealistic expectations. He's a very good manager even if things didn't work out a great at Arsenal.
After years of Lerner and a brief flirtation with a Chinese owner who wasn't able to support the club Villa fans would like to see the club solidly fixed in the Premier league. Mid table instead of flirting with relegation would be a good start.
@@geoffreycodnett6570 You will have it with Emery.
Listening to this in May 2024 brings a smile to my face, Arsenals loss Villas gain. Get in there. The mighty villa long live Emery
I'm confused why Emery is considered an "elite" manager, he's a good coach but watching him at Arsenal I don't think he's got good people management skills etc
Andy, please don't be thick. Do a quick Google search and you'll know why he is regarded as "elite"
The low IQ in the CZcams comments section are unreal these days!
good ebening
Lmfao....so funny coming back to This
Getting promoted cost the owners 300 million to build a team just to survive! 150 mill since then while recouping some of that outlay. Villa fans are more than happy with our owners, I don't think they were too confident about giving a rookie manager like Gerrard tons of cash to waste, Emery is different gravy, there ain't much in his 900 games he does not know. UTV
I'm probably wrong but the way the owners seemed to be unwilling to splash the cash after the early transfer season was probably a growing feeling Gerrard wasn't the man for the job. He seemed a dead man walking after the loss of the first match.
I’m glad we got Howe instead of Emery his football isn’t great to watch but he’s a very good cup manager and he’ll deffo do better than Gerrard
Jordans opinions are out to lunch when it comes to anything Arsenal, always leans a negative slant
Spurs fan, I always felt that towards the end of his tenure, some of Arsenal’s players threw him under the bus so to speak. Whilst I don’t like the fact Villa are still up in the Prem after the Sheffield United incident, they have a good group of players and I do wish Emery well that he can get them playing together for the badge again.
The Sheff Utd incident...there were nine and a half games still to go when that "goal" went in. No one knows how the rest of that game would have panned-out, let alone the 9 games that followed. And every club has had awful VAR decisions go against them.
@@mulveye_music yes nobody would have known how that game would have panned out had the goal been correctly awarded but fans themselves should have the humility to accept they stayed in the league through technological error rather than try to justify it with “VAR decisions that went against other clubs”.
Brutally honest as usual Simon😆
Simon talking his honest bullshit on this occasion.
In November 2021 Villa were 4th biggest spenders, and have spent more since
4) Aston Villa (£205.11m)
Ouch ouch ouch. Even with the £100m sale of Jack Grealish, that is an awful lot of money. An awful lot of money. And that is why Dean Smith is under real pressure as Villa sit in 15th place having just lost at home to West Ham.
Sawiris and Edens have invested heavily. There's way more to it than net spend (Lets ignore the fact they were willing to spend more eg Sarr). Our wage bill has shot up, we've invested heavily in youth, Bodymoor Heath, inner city training facilities, we're rebranding and rebuilding the stadium. We have fantastic owners, they are rebuilding the club from top to bottom. UTV.
A chunk of Bodymoor Heath money came courtesy of HS2 aka the tax payer. The inner city training facility isn't built yet and the stadium changes might start next year.
@@geoffreycodnett6570 so?
This has been pushed to me by CZcams. As an Arsenal fan all the best to Unai Emery. And hope it will be a Gudebening. Though sadly he is now saying "good evening".
I think that reaching the champions league semi finals last year with villarreal is even more impressive than winning the europa league
David moyes and emery came to fill big boots at wrong time
