Aston Villa manager Unai Emery has explained why his team suffered a 4-1 defeat to Arsenal in their recent Premier League match. According to him, the loss came from a mix of defensive mistakes, missed chances, and a lack of control in key moments of the game.

Emery said his side started well but failed to maintain focus, especially after conceding the first goal. He noted that Arsenal punished every small error and showed more sharpness in front of goal.

The manager also pointed out that his team struggled to cope with Arsenal’s pace and movement, particularly in the second half. He admitted that tactical adjustments did not work as planned and allowed Arsenal to dominate possession and create more chances.

Emery assured fans that the defeat will be used as a learning experience. He said the team will review the match carefully, fix their weaknesses, and return stronger in the next fixtures.
