Emery delighted having Villa now competitive in Europe

Aston Villa boss Unai Emery is delighted having the club now competitive in Europe.

After this season's run to the Europa Conference League semifinals, Villa will be in the Champions League next term.

Emery said: I don't like to stop and think about how much I did or how much we did. I prefer to think always about now and tomorrow. I want to enjoy it.

I enjoyed being in the Conference League this year. I enjoyed the way we did and the experiences we had. We didn't win but the experiences we had, with some players playing for the first time in Europe, was fantastic.

Everything we are doing here is progressively getting better. If last year we got Conference League and we were very excited, the next step could be to get Europa League. But if we can get more than that, the Champions League is better.

Always my idea is to try today to be better than yesterday and tomorrow better than today."
