Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has heaped praise on Aston Villa for their win over Newcastle United. Ferdinand says the Magpies had no answer for Unai Emery's gameplan, and it's difficult to argue otherwise.
The Toon were limited to very little in front of goal and were all over the place at back. It was a rare off day for the Magpies who could drop down to fourth if Manchester United win at Nottingham Forest tomorrow.
When asked about the job Emery had done at Villa Park, Ferdinand told BT Sport: "It’s a remarkable job. He’s turned around the form of a lot of these players. This place is now bouncing, I’ve been here a few times and it’s not had this energy for a while.
