Emery emphasized Malen's versatility, stating, 'He's usually playing as a number seven and sometimes as a number 11 on the left side, while he can also play as a number ten.' He highlighted Malen's attacking threat, indicating, 'In the attacking third, he's always close to getting into the opponent's box to score goals and get assists. We will need a player like him trying to threaten the opponent in behind.'
Reflecting on Villa's recent performance, Emery said, 'We can feel a little bit of confidence after we won in Everton, but the challenge tomorrow is to be competitive. Through being competitive, we can be close to taking a good result.' He acknowledged the difficulty of upcoming matches, remarking, 'Arsenal tomorrow will be very, very difficult. Every match we are facing is being very, very difficult.'
