Unai Emery
Latest News (235)

We all saw Emi's heroics with Argentina in the World Cup. But has he taken it too far at Aston Villa? Unai Emery believes so! Emi Martinez was seen in qualifying as getting in the heads of the opponents but in the premier league this past weekend against Arsenal his antics have left his manager, Unai Emery, saying "It's embarrassing for me" after Emi ran up on a corner and left the goal wide open allowing Gabriel Marinelli to score Arsenal's 4th goal of the game. I'm sure Aston Villa fans are just as embarrassed and Arsenal fans are less so. How'd you feel about it?
