Aston Villas John McGinn Lauds Incredible Unai Emery After Securing Europa League Final Spot

Aston Villa overturned a 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest from the initial match by winning 4-0 on their home turf thus earning a place in the final.

The team from the Premier League is set to take on Freiburg next who defeated Braga and the showdown will happen in Istanbul on 20th May marking Emerys sixth such appearance.

In his post match chat with TNT Sports McGinn aged 31 showered compliments on the Spanish coach.

He has taken part in far more European semi finals than our group. During the Conference League semi final we might have been a touch over enthusiastic yet this time we handled it well he remarked.

He has been outstanding much like every manager Ive worked with. Steve Bruce built my belief to compete in England Dean Smith boosted my assurance for Premier League action and Steven Gerrard showed me leadership ways.
