"Aston Villa have started the season in disastrous manner after failing to score a single goal in their first four Premier League games of the season. Unai Emery's side are completely looking out of ideas and lack inspiration which is a huge surprise considering how they have performed in the last few seasons under the Spanish manager. Not a single goal scored so far this season, sitting in the relegation zone"
"When you look at a team, you think they have the personnel to go out and do it, he told Sky Sports, as reported by Birmingham Mail. Ollie Watkins, he's a proven scorer in the in the Premier League, Morgan Rogers who set the league alight last season and the season before. [Youri] Tielemans in midfield, normally a good passer, progressive [plays] forward, looks to find people early,"
"he was out there today. Buendia for me is not at the standard of [Jadon] Sancho or Harvey Elliott, who was sitting on the bench. So when I look at, I think he had better players on the bench than he did on the pitch. Now they did come on eventually, but it's really hard to get into the rhythm of the game."
Aston Villa have gone four Premier League games without scoring and sit in the relegation zone after a poor start. The side were also eliminated from the Carabao Cup by Brentford. Key players Ollie Watkins, Morgan Rogers and Youri Tielemans have struggled to make an impact so far this season. Tim Sherwood singled out Emi Buendia as not meeting the required standard and suggested alternatives such as Harvey Elliott or Jadon Sancho should start. Unai Emery faces pressure to find solutions as Villa have only two points from their first four league matches.
