This is the first time Unai has gone off script, he admitted we are tired and even gave us a little story of an interaction he had, and I think it’s fair to say if Emery says we are tired… we are tired… it’s amazing what him and this team have achieved

Olsen was class today, UTV

[@Mohammed-ln9rq]

Whatever happens unai and villa have had an amazing season improving step by step and considering all the injuries we had UTV

[@philliplloyd8336]

Absolutely brilliant season 👏 UTV WE ARE BACK

[@placeholdercrh2286]

What a class act Unai is. I like the confidence and his understanding of the situation. Juggling the injuries and matches as he has shows a master at work. It’s been smart to occasionally switch to the 4-5-1 with Bailey-Rogers-Diaby instead of rigidly sticking to the box

[@kazsangha18]

His post-match interviews are so professional! What a G

[@ljmolly4029]

I will never get tired of this man's honesty, his directness, professionalism, his ability to always see the positive and negative and maintain the healthy balance a team needs from its leader. IN UNAI WE TRUST! Wonderful season with so many fantastic moments to savor... no matter what happens from here on out.

[@jessepinkmen8365]

I think we do have good owners to be honest ever since we got promoted they've invested a lot into the club with buying good players. We just needed that manager to unlock everyone's talent. And we've found him. We're so lucky he turned down newcastle united for us.

[@dan1991woopwoop]

Loving the positivity from the villa fans. Keep the faith ✊️

[@SirForbi]

Still an unbelievable season, the fact we’re disappointed we’re struggling to secure 4th place just shows how crazy this season has been, the lads are tired, the squad is non existent, as long as the lads do what they can I’ll be happy as a lifelong Villa fan, UTFV 💜💙

[@junedhussain6252]

I know it's a loss. However, i shouldn't be disappointed as we had an amazing season. The players looked tired after Thursday's night defeat. With three games left (or four if by some miracle, we make it to the Europa Conference final) lets hope we finish off the season off on a high. UTV!!!

[@Hammerschool]

Love this guy. UTV

[@brettriverboat9920]

That save from Olsen against Chelsea when Palmer had that one on one at Villa Park is absolutely crucial now

[@ciaranhegarty6585]

What a legend, every word he says in this interview, im just nodding my head in agreement, so much logic and context to it all! The final furlong now in a great season. If you gave us all this scenrio with 3-4 games in the season left, brilliant manager👌

[@thefilmandmusic]

Olsen our man of the match …Don’t panic !!!

[@jamjak4834]

What an absolutely amazing season we've had. Whatever happens before the end of the season!! I'm so proud of the Club, the players and our Boss. Up The Villa. In Unai we trust.

[@leeevans1874]

Absolute Miracle worker .

[@Lewis88-wr6sm]

Injuries are really catching up with us now. Emery has no options to be able to rotate the squad and manage player minutes. Hopefully Tielemans and Martinez are back next week and Rogers injury isn’t to serious.

[@Salacious-Crumb]

Rogers hamstring mate...wounded

[@neilorme1637]

Great interview, love my manager, UTV!

[@Askravinther]

UE knows what he is talking about. UTV!

[@Stef____Chickennn]

Just go all out on Thursday

[@kristos77]

Class act this man.

[@willb440]

Pleased that Olsen played well. Will do him good to get some minutes and show hes actually decent

[@reecehalliday1912]

No he is the worst goalkeeper I ever seen pls hope Martinez is actually better for Thursday night we lost that today and on Thursday bc of Olsen get him out

[@jamesmcfall700]

​@@reecehalliday1912 he was the best player on the pitch today, he was good against chelsea and the olympiacos game wasnt his fault

[@ahibbard44]

Missing so many key players to get us over the line. Hold the faith we can do it. Thanks to Liverpool today 🙏 come on you villa boys

[@romaspain2702]

Let's go Liverpool,huge,huge favor

[@Danny-Boy1874]

Super proud of the boys! What a season it's been so far. Let's keep this train rolling. See you next Monday! UTFV HITS VTID

[@effahmaxwell4725]

I didn’t expect Watkins and Bailey to see 90 to keep them fresher for Thursday. They’re obviously tired and didn’t have much to offer.

[@cestmoi7829]

Go Unai ❤ 💪🏻

[@stevecollins6858]

Fairly confident we've reached the Champions league with spurs losing at Liverpool. I see them beating Burnley and Sheffield but City will beat them.

[@maratmm1284]

У Сити нет другого выбора, кроме как побеждать Тоттенхэм и тем самым войти в историю с 4-я победами. Сити обязательно победит

[@Unknown.7_529]

Villa will win conference league 💯🧬👑

[@gsbjksikentom]

Olsen was man of the match, without him, we can lose 3-0 or more

[@BossLevelAudio24]

Olympiakos and lille had their weekend matches postponed so they could be rested before facing villa. The FA need to look at this. The squad is heavily depleted and players are just spent.

[@johnquinn6442]

Unari Emery has to be manager of the season

[@TomsGoingHAM]

Tottenham still doing us favours ! It’s still in our hands so we go again ✊

Gotta get Ollie that ball, 2 shots and 1 on target the whole game is dire.

[@danielhughes7228]

[@cureit9161]

Pressure is all on Spurs, they have lost 5 on the bounce, and need to win all their remaining games! We actually do not have to win any of the two we have left...spurs have to play Citeh and beating them as remote as it is, would hand the title to Arsenal, cannot see that happening.

[@alexmoreno5044]

Liverpool helped us. Burnley just may get something v Spurs, too. It IS still in our hands!

[@romaspain2702]

I think Villa will loose 2 last matches,but Tottenham surely will loose 1,it means that Villa will have Champions League

Poor I'm afraid,cash should have gone to right back Konsa too slow for right back.tim should have come on for luiz who didn't even break sweat.for big men both centre backs feeble.olsen played well.

If spurs lose tonight just put the u21s out vs liverpool to rest the first team and go all in to get a result from palace!

[@calvinliu6304]

Disappointed results

[@Jack-lk7wk]

Unai has to take responsibility for today

[@miljonair3882]

This game doesn't matter. Villa are getting top 4 anyway. Spurs are losing to Liverpool at the moment and they will lose to Man City.

[@user-br5in4dd4n]

Unai can take responsibility for us even being in the top 4. He's doing wonders with a depleted squad.

[@stephenevans6861]

He takes responsibility 24/7players depleted and knackered

[@axelmcleod8427]

Context is great and all but within context of the game they played awful.

[@stewartmarsh5199]

Utter nonsense Unai. You've flogged the same players game, after game, after game. Roll on the end of the season.

[@cestmoi7829]

Dude - easy to criticize today but unai has done a terrific job and we are in a position that we had no realistic hope to be in for many years; he is and has done brilliantly. Keep the faith bro & praise he who delivers. Don’t shit on those who bring us glory but see the big picture & the owners, unsi & team are the best thing to happen to villa for decades !! UTV 💪🏻

[@garymanders2340]

showing true colours million miles from top 3 in prem soon be out of conferense Cup next season will be a big laugh in champions league

very poor.. very slow.. very boring 😫😖 Thursday we have lost again... Sure!!!!!

[@jonathanhazel6777]

Really bad result for the villans and absolutely silly 😋.

[@chrisbarber1187]

Sorry Unai, but your team are professional football ers , I work 8+ hours a day every day, I get 1 day off and I go again! It's no excuse that you need to rest more! You have 3 days between your next game, let's make it happen!

[@dalehornby7049]

I'm sure every player wants to play every minute of every game but it's not realistic at this level and intensity, some people dont understand how demanding it is especially 3 times a week it's not an excuse it's a fact and laying bricks or pouring pints isn't the same as 270 mins a week of top level football sorry but certain players risk injury if over used like LB for example

[@simonfaulkner7731]

What do you do?

[@alexmoreno5044]

How can you compare yourself to the squad who've over achieved in over 50 games this season... deluded. Its time not to bitch but SUPPORT our team. Come on.

[@nick4810]

such an ignorant, typical clueless boomer comment. Your 9-5 has nothing to do with athletes not being at 100% fitness.
