Whoever thought that Aston Villa, who finished fourth and had a great last season, could challenge Arsenal at Villa Park, probably hasn’t read or seen anything in the last two months. Unai Emery proved time and time again that he is an excellent coach who can turn good players into great ones, but this time his key players were picked by the ‘Big six’ teams and the replacements were not as near as good. On the other side tonight was the current champion, who took Villa’s best defender (Ezri Konsa) and some other great players on the market and simply looked better. Arsenal had an easy game against newcomers Coventry, but Villa is a much stronger opponent. Still, the quality was visible and the Gunners scored only one goal, but it was good enough for all three points: Aston Villa – Arsenal 0-1.It was not bad enough that the Villains were left without Konsa, Rodgers, Emiliano Martinez and Tielemans, but their newest acquisition Manzambi got injured. Along with suspended Gomes and long te..

They invested in Artem Dovbyk and also brought in Evan Ferguson on loan, but Gian Piero Gasperini was not satisfied with what he had been offered. There was no cutting edge, no ruthlessness — simply not enough goals. At the Olimpico last January, the idea emerged of bringing in Donyell Malen on a paid loan from Aston Villa. A purchase option was agreed, and it soon became obvious: he was the one. The Olimpico would be his new home. There was absolutely no question about whether he would be signed permanently. He simply had to be. In his first five Serie A appearances, he was almost as productive as the great Gabriel Batistuta. Only Donyell Malen, alongside Batigol, had scored more than five goals for Roma in Serie A during that period. He continued to torment opposing defenses and goalkeepers, and now, after Roma exercised their option to sign him for 25,000,000 euros, he has carried on where he left off. He scored a hat-trick against Fiorentina, and today he added two against Lecce in..
