Aston Villa Manager Emery Hails Rashford’s Performance Against Chelsea

Aston Villa manager Unai Emery has said forward Marcus Rashford played a fantastic 45 minutes against Chelsea in the Premier League at weekend.

Rashford provided two assists to help Aston Villa secure a 2-1 win over Chelsea at Villa Park.
The 27-year-old came off the bench at half-time to set up both of Marco Asensio’s goals as the hosts completed a stunning comeback win.

Aston Villa were 1-0 down when Rashford was introduced by Emery.
Speaking after the game, Emery told Sky Sports about Rashford: “[We] support him, help him, try to feel comfortable here, try to get confidence with us.

“[We] try to use his skill in our tactical idea. He’s in the process, and of course, he played a fantastic 45 minutes. Already, he is going to be very important.”
Rashford joined Villa on loan from Manchester United during the January transfer window.

The Englishman was frozen out at Man United by manager Ruben Amorim.

Aston Villa’s next Premier League game is against Crystal Palace on Tuesday.
