0 wins in 5 rounds at the beginning, Emery: Some players are still adapting to the Villa system, it takes time

Hupu September 22nd Aston Villa head coach Emery attended the press conference after the 1-1 draw with Sunderland.

How do you think of Villa in 5 games and 0 wins?

"First of all, I thank all the fans who have come here to support us and help us, just like they have been doing all season.

We are disappointed and frustrated—not because of the result, because we should win this game with just one player—but the most important thing is how to win. We have to work hard to get back on, get back our style, use the style we want to build, use the style we have actively experienced, and be more frustrated by it.

I am more frustrated by it. We have a lot of work to do; some players are adapting to the roster and our philosophy, and they need time. Others are here last year, and they know how we want to build a team and how we have succeeded in the last three years.

That's what I want, how to cheer up."

Since Emery coached, Villa has been a stable force in the upper reaches of the top league, making it to the top seven for three consecutive years. The challenge is how to get back in the next few weeks, starting with the first Europa League debut against Bologna on Thursday.

"We are in good shape because we are playing in the Europa League. We are also playing in the Premier League, and we want to remain stable throughout the season. We have not started well. The last three games have been away games, and the away game is always challenging.

We draw and don't lose, which is a good thing, but that's not enough. We need to strengthen the team's system - not only tactical but also personal abilities on the court.

I have to work hard to analyze with the players, and I will put higher demands on them. We have to work hard to restore some confidence.

We want them to be satisfied with everything we do. Now I'm a little worried, not about the result, not about our position in the standings, but about not playing in our own style, not trying to dominate the game with existing players and styles, imposing it on the opponents."
