Aston Villa boss Unai Emery has praised Marco Asensio for scoring the winning goal against Chelsea in Saturday’s Premier League.

Recall that Asensio struck twice for the 2-1 win, with Marcus Rashford involved in both goals.

Reacting after the game, Emery lauded Asensio’s performance and contributions against Chelsea.

He also praised Rashford, Donyell Malen and Lamare Bogarde for their impacts.

“He is a number 10. He can get the tempo we need. He can get assists and also score goals as he did today. I need that.”

“This was the objective when we signed those players in the window – trying to improve our squad with the quality and skill these players have and how they can adapt with us quick.

“I think today and in the last matches as well, they are getting to the level we want. They have the experiences at the highest level. Be it Marcus (Rashford), Donyell (Malen) who played in the Champions League final and (Marco) Asensio. Lamare Bogarde was very good today and Andres Garcia also played 20 minute and was feeling very comfortable.”
