"We have to work hard because the work always pays off, and I'm sure we have the team. The performances will come, and I'm not worried about that. At home, we know how we can play and how we can be strong. We have to show that. We have to stay calm and trust in our process and in our work because we are working really hard here."
"We did very well [last season] and this gives us confidence. If you have this proven a few times, and also at Villa Park, and not just at home - so there it was a 2-2 and a 2-1 last year - it shows, in every single game against them we scored goals. And this gives us confidence that we are able to do it."
Lucas Digne called for calm ahead of Aston Villa's Premier League fixture against Crystal Palace, stressing confidence in the squad after signing a new contract. Aston Villa remain the only Premier League side yet to score following a goalless draw with Newcastle and a 1-0 loss at Brentford. Digne emphasised hard work, trusting the process and showing strength at home as the path to improved performances. Crystal Palace have experienced a hectic start under Oliver Glasner, with transfer issues, European qualification shifts and Community Shield success. Palace's recent record against Villa provides confidence and a possible mental advantage.
