Aston Villa’s manager, Unai Emery, acknowledges that the team is not expected to make significant transfers this month.
Prior to the weekend, Villa is ranked second in the Premier League, and Emery is pleased with the team.
Even if they are still in contention for the FA Cup, the Europa Conference League, and the title, Emery has ruled out making any significant changes in January when they play Everton on Sunday.
The manager of the month for December, Emery, stated, “We are not being very focused in the transfer window because we are second in the table and we are recovering some players that have been out since the start of the season (Alex Moreno and Jacob Ramsey).”
“I’m thrilled with the players,” The players have a strong connection to one another as well as a strong desire to put in a lot of effort.
“Until the end of the season, we will compete in three very tough competitions: the Premier League, the FA Cup, and the Europa Conference League. To play in our concept and style, players must be available, prepared, and able to put on strong performances.
“To do that, we have the players here.”
With knee ailments, Emi Buendia and Tyrone Mings have been out for a time, and Lucas Digne is also sidelined due to a hamstring injury.
Pau Torres (ankle) and Youri Tielemans (calf) have returned to training although the game could come too soon and Bertrand Traore is with Burkina Faso for the Africa Cup of Nations.
“They (Everton) are progressively getting better and playing very competitively,” Emery continued. Despite their point deduction problem, they are still playing well and competing fiercely in every game.
“Beating them in their stadium with their fans is extremely difficult.” Their regard is immense.
“They will be fierce rivals at home, and we will prepare for the game with a great deal of respect for them.”
