The top scorer for Aston Villa believes the Spaniard was present when he inspired his team to a 4-0 victory over Brentford last week. Ings is anticipating this weekend’s match against Newcastle United.
Speaking on Unai Emery’s transfer to Aston Villa, Danny Ings
Danny Ings expresses his hope that Unai Emery, the team’s new head coach, was aware of his impressive double against Brentford last weekend. After last week’s firing of Steven Gerrard, Aston Villa introduced Emery as their new manager just two days after their 4-0 victory.
When asked about the team’s disposition in light of Emery’s hiring, Ings told Villa TV: “Of course we’re excited, but it’s sad when managers do depart. Even though I’ve mentioned it before, you do feel accountable.

The guys were eager to work with Emery and explore where our group could go when he was first mentioned. We need to make sure we keep bringing that energy and, with his guidance, hopefully we’ll be where we need to be. I’m sure he was watching the game over the weekend.
Emery will begin working at Bodymoor Heath the following week (November 1), although interim coach Aaron Danks will depart Villa for their game against Newcastle on Saturday. Added Ings “Training has been productive (this week); with a successful outcome, there is always going to be a high and everyone is going to be in a good mood.
“It’s a huge test against a formidable foe who is at a good time. Therefore, for us, winning that game depends entirely on how well we prepare and how we approach it. They seem to have advanced considerably tactically under Eddie.
It will be really difficult because I know Eddie and how talented he is as a manager and coach. But after the last game, we will enter this one with a lot of confidence. If we execute our tactical plan perfectly, we can really make it difficult for them and, hopefully, win.
