Aston Villa is in contention for a top-four finish in the Premier League following a crucial victory over Chelsea. With only seven points separating fourth place from 11th, the race is intense for Champions League qualification. Midfielder Morgan Rogers, who has been influential this season, may be sidelined for upcoming matches due to a recent injury concern. Manager Unai Emery emphasizes the need for strong substitutes as the squad faces the challenge of competing across three competitions, preparing for a key match against Crystal Palace soon.
The idea is to have subs performing well as well when we are not having every player available to play, said the Villa chief, who was ranked at No.6 in FourFourTwo's list of the best managers in the world last year.
Unai Emery's side are competing on three fronts, so there was concern when in-form Morgan Rogers was taken off during the second half of the win over Chelsea at the weekend.
