Unai Emery: “We all want the same thing at Aston Villa, but we need specialists. My specialty is not recruitment. I’ve always wanted to focus on the pitch, on the grass, on preparing what happens from the offices onto the field. Since I started working with Roberto (Olabe) 20 years ago at Almería, I’ve had great professional & personal respect for him. I need people who contribute in all areas so we can keep growing.”
Emery: “I’m ultimately responsible, but we share that responsibility. But I insist — my place has always been on the pitch. Outside of that, whatever Roberto says, I follow him completely.”
