I guess Emery just says 'I want this player' and Monchi makes it happen if Nas signs it off? You clearly havent been keeping up with your Monchi masterclasses. Emery says I want this "profile" of player and Monchi wheels out his up to date list with everyone they've been scouting who fits that bill.

I wouldn't mind betting that as Emery and Monchi are good friends Unai has already been discussing his main targets and asking Monchi to check out best alternatives (strictly off the record between mates just chatting as mates do of course) if top targets can't or don't want to join the Villa Project.

If anyone hasn't watched Monchi's YouTube "master classes" yet you really should. It's one of the reasons I'm buzzing about having him here at Villa.

It's one of the reasons I'm buzzing about having him here at Villa. He does seem very similar to Emery in this obsession over detail and huge amount of time and work he puts into it. Only half way through but they are very interesting. With the Roma thing, don't think many will have felt more pain from that than him. He'll be aware that he can't afford to do that again with us.

Emery’s also good friends with Alberto Benito who we signed a month ago they go way back to their time playing together at Toledo and then at Almeria, Arsenal and PSG so I imagine a few targets have been discussed already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlack Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 Can't beat that straight from the horses mouth then.
