Villa are expected to have a busy summer as Unai Emery looks to bring in signings of his own. The club have already been linked with several potential signings, with the latest being Southampton's Armel Bella-Kotchap. Tottenham are only the fifth side in Premier League history to lose three consecutive games despite opening the scoring in each match, and first since Leicester City in December 2014, whose third game was also against Aston Villa. Villa are also exploring the possibility of appointing Sevilla's sporting director Monchi, following Mateu Alemany's decision to stay at Barcelona. Steve: Could have been 5-2 at half-time. Villa just not owning the middle of the park. Big changes by Emery. All of a sudden, Bailey looked a threat and Spurs got tired chasing. In the end, Villa's second-half performance won them the match. The final whistle prompted players to hug each other while Emery and his coaching staff did likewise amid incredible noise from the home fans.

But Pau Torres levelled with a header deep into first-half added time before Ollie Watkins slotted in his 12th goal of the season to seal Villa's turnaround. Aston Villa manager Unai Emery to MOTD: "It was a very tough match. Amazing the way we played for ninety minutes. For two sides - they were taking chances we were taking chances as well. Then we tried to be efficient, be consistent with our game plan. Sometimes the offside was very tight with VAR.Julian: Bailey deserves to start. As the best sub in the league it would be great to see his work from the word go. Mike: It’s easy to forget in all the excitement of where we are in the table relative to just before Unai Emery arrived, but take a moment to imagine the table without five goals shipped at Newcastle on matchday 1. We’d be top by a point. Emery would like to add another director to the club's boardroom after Alemany was targeted earlier this year and Monchi appears set to leave Europa League champions Sevilla for the second time in his career due to a power struggle at his current club. Monchi rejoined to Sevilla in March 2019 having left the club a year after Emery's exit in 2017 to join Roma. He departed the Italian club two years after signing a four-and-a-half year deal. It is going to be fascinating to see how they get on because Aston Villa are so well organised under Unai Emery, and you know they will be ready for them. He can rub people the wrong way but his performances speak for themselves," Begovic said. "He’s been really solid and taken his game to a new level. He really kept his team in the game and made some big saves [against Tottenham] at crucial times, which is what top goalkeepers do.

Neil: Two key players don’t make a team but their absence through injury [Van de Ven and Maddison] is having a disproportionate effect. The wheels have truly come off Tottenham’s wagon. What made this more special for Villa's supporters was the knowledge this was something they could not have contemplated a few months ago. On Villa's away form: "Naturally, it is more difficult than playing at home, but it is not an excuse. The way to improve is to create and build a structure, with the ball and without the ball."

De Zerbi faces a summer during which Mac Allister and a number of the club's other highly rated players - such as Moises Caicedo, Kaoru Mitoma and teenagers Enciso, Facundo Buonanotte and Evan Ferguson - will have admirers.
