Aston Villa head coach Unai Emery commented on the 1-0 victory over Arsenal in the English Premier League matchday 16.
Unai Emery, Getty Images"I am happy. We are on the same page with the fans and this positive energy is transmitted to us. Today we needed it because we were tired after the match on Wednesday.
We fought well and built a solid defence. We talked about the need to play dry games against City and Arsenal, and it's impressive that we managed to do that. Today we played deeper than we wanted to, but we had to fight - and we did.
We want to be in the top eight, but many people want that. We will fight to get into that group," Emery was quoted as saying by the BBC.
