""We are going to play on Saturday, keep the same mentality we have, and until now, very proud [of] everything we are doing with our supporters," Emery said. "The league is the most difficult league in the world, and there are 17 contenders at the beginning of the season to be in the top seven, and then we are trying always to beat some of them. "Until now, we are doing [that], but the challenge we have is clear: try to keep the same consistency, the same demands we have, being ambitious with our supporters.""
""We should all reflect on how far this club has come and how much has been achieved in only a short space of time," Marinakis said. "Expectations have rightly been set very high"
Aston Villa lost 4-1 to Arsenal, ending an eight-match Premier League winning run and an 11-match run in all competitions. Villa return to Villa Park for their first match of 2026 having won their last ten home outings in all competitions, their longest run since October 1989–January 1990. Villa remain third in the Premier League, six points behind Arsenal. Unai Emery wants the team to keep the same mentality, consistency and ambition with supporters and to respond quickly. Nottingham Forest sit 17th, four points above relegation, having lost three straight matches, and owner Evangelos Marinakis is optimistic about improving in the second half of the season.
