Brendan Rodgers reckons it’s incredible that Unai Emery was mocked and made a figure of fun.
The Celtic boss is excited for another joust with the Spaniard as his team tackle Aston Villa. Emery has worked wonders in the Midlands to have his club punching in the Champions League. Rodgers could barely believe the attitude taken to his opposite number during a difficult period at Arsenal. Emery has responded brilliantly by turning Aston Villa into serious contenders at the top end of the English Premier League and leading them into the Champions League.
It’s not just Emery Rodgers admires at Villa. His old Leicester City charge Youri Tielemans is one of the main men in the Midlands and John McGinn, of course, will forever be the one that got away for the Celtic boss.
Rodgers said: “Youri was absolutely brilliant for me. Youri was a young player that we spent a lot of money on, bringing him to Leicester. And I’m so pleased to see how he’s done here. I thin you have certain players in your squads. He’d be very much like Callum (McGregor) for me, where he was a coach on the pitch.
Celtic travel to Villa Park this evening to take on Unai Emery’s Aston Villa in the Champions League.
