What’s been said?

Feyernood boss Robin van Persie: “Aston Villa is obviously a fantastic team with a fantastic manager. That’s beyond doubt. They’re super fit and play very structured. I think we are too. Based on that, it won’t be a chaotic match.”

Villa head coach Emery: “It’s important that we are consistent and focused for the full 90 minutes because it is our first away game in the Europa League and we’re against a prestigious team. They are going to be so motivated, so tomorrow will be a huge test for us collectively and individually.”
