"In September I was worried and the objective was to stay in the Premier League. In December I was so happy and excited to get the top-five position and achieve the Champions League. One month ago I was dreaming about maybe winning the Premier League. Now we are in the average to be in the top five."
Aston Villa suffered a significant defeat to Wolverhampton, with Joao Gomes and Rodrigo Gomes scoring in the second half. This loss marks a notable shift in Villa's season trajectory, as they have now been drawn into a tight competition for Champions League qualification alongside Manchester United, Liverpool, and Chelsea. Manager Unai Emery reflected on the team's changing fortunes, noting the shift from early-season survival concerns to December optimism about top-five finishes, and now the reality of competing for Champions League spots. Wolverhampton's victory is particularly notable as only one other Premier League team has defeated them this season.
