Unai Emery's programme notes: "We worked the whole season for nine months, and now it is the crucial time. We need Villa Park, once again, giving energy and support, which we are feeling in each moment. This is so important now, to be together, players and fans." #AVFC

Unai Emery's programme notes: "It is the moment to be focused in every single match, put the five senses in every and each action, help each teammate and fight every duel like it would be the last one. We must forget about the future and be fully focused." #AVFC

Unai Emery's programme notes: "The best energy we can find in these busy weeks is to get results and build confidence. No matter who is playing, what matters is the collective goal. Because now is the time for the team and not to think of individual interests or goals." #AVFC

Unai Emery's programme notes: "While we are so, so excited by our semi-final, we know that today needs laser focus and determination. We will have time to talk about Europe, but today we face a huge challenge that can be a strong step in our race for top five." #AVFC

Aston Villa have no intention of letting Morgan Rogers leave on the cheap this summer. The Villans will use #LFC's deal for Florian Wirtz as a benchmark for any potential transfer. @GraemeBailey #AVFC

“The first half he was telling us he was feeling something in his calf. I don’t know how he is going to recover. Hopefully in a few days he can recover. We must be careful and we will see how he progresses.” Unai Emery on Amadou Onana #AVFC

Unai Emery insists that he and his #AVFC players are focused solely on strengthening their bid for a UCL finish when they face Tottenham, rather than being distracted by the UEL semi-final second leg. "We are completely focusing on it as a priority." https://www.birminghammail.co

Roberto De Zerbi: "We will play one of the best teams at the moment in the Premier League. I have big respect for Emery as a coach, but if Tottenham win at Villa Park, it is not a miracle. Maybe we lose, but we have the quality to win this game, and it is not a miracle." #AVFC
