After Villa started the season with a 2-1 victory over West Ham last week, Emery said his side were confident of getting a result against last season’s runners-up in the late kick-off. “This is the same for every team – August is difficult and different – still one match to play this week against Leicester but in the balance we have to try to be consistent.” Morgan Rogers impressed at Villa Park and the 22-year-old was unlucky not to be on the scoresheet. This is the same for every team - August is difficult and different - still one match to play this week against Leicester but in the balance we have to try to be consistent Unai Emery After muscling off both Gabriel Martinelli and Partey in midfield, he forced an effort just wide of the target midway through the second period.
