Emery speaks about Villa’s legacy in Europe, the challenge of facing a highly organised Bologna side under Vincenzo Italiano, and why this knockout tie demands total respect and concentration.
The Villa boss also discusses the international break, player fitness, Jadon Sancho’s injury status, and the tactical difficulty of playing against Bologna’s intense man-to-man pressing style.
