Unai Emery came back to haunt Arsenal on Saturday as Aston Villa cut another English Premier League title challenger down to size.
A 1-0 win at Villa Park set a new club record of 15 straight home victories in the league and moved Emery's team to within two points of first-placed Liverpool.
How sweet it must have been for the Spanish coach to get the better of his former club after being fired by Arsenal in 2019. He had already rebuilt his reputation before taking over a Villa team that was in danger of being relegated last season. But his work with the Midlands club could be his finest yet in a career that has seen him win four Europa League titles.
