Unai Emery urges team to go all out for victory

The Premier League has reached the 34th round. Aston Villa will challenge the defending champion Manchester City away. Coach Unai Emery stressed that the team must not slow down at this critical stage and must go all out.

Aston Villa is in hot form right now, having just beaten Newcastle 4-1 to win five straight games. In the standings, they are only one point behind Manchester City, and both teams are fighting for qualification for the Champions League next season.

At the pre-match press conference, Emery stressed: "We can't stop. We are at an important moment of the season. The entire Premier League season has 38 rounds and we are working hard to achieve our first goal."

"Tomorrow we will play against Manchester City in the 34th round. They are a strong team competing for the top four and even the championship. Although this season is more challenging for them, they are still strong."

"As always I have huge respect for Manchester City. We are ready and every Aston Villa player and staff is fully focused and concentrating on this phase."

Striker Ollie Watkins had an outstanding individual performance. He scored a goal against Newcastle United in the last round, tying Gabriel Agbonlahor's club Premier League goal record and becoming the team's top scorer.

Emery praised Watkins, saying: "I am happy with Watkins' growth and performance. His goals are not only important to him personally, but also have a profound impact on the club's progress and future. I hope we can continue to help him move forward and make more breakthroughs."

Aston Villa will face a tough battle at the Etihad Stadium. It will be worth paying attention to whether they can continue their winning streak and continue to attack the Champions League qualification.
