Aston Villa's manager Unai Emery deals with the departure of top scorer Jhon Duran amidst a hectic transfer window. Emery emphasizes adaptability and utilization of versatile players, highlighting Donyell Malen's ability to play as a striker. He also addresses the team's challenges of balancing Premier League and Champions League commitments.
In the week that Aston Villa confirmed their place in the last 16 of the Champions League , they also sold their top scorer. Jhon Duran ’s departure will be a disappointment to some. The challenge for Unai Emery is to ensure the changes make Villa stronger. Dealing with the twin tests of the Premier League and Europe has been a theme of the season.
Against Celtic, Boubacar Kamara played there with Matty Cash's early exit forcing Lamare Bogarde to right-back. 'The players we have I am very proud of how they respond in different circumstances with the level we need to achieve. We drew at home to West Ham but we reacted very well against Celtic last Wednesday and the response was coming quick. 'The most important thing is that they respond not after but before, when we need them, how they are prepared to do it.
