Mauricio Pochettino's plan of showing that Chelsea are not Cole Palmer FC backfired as the Blues lost 5-0 to Arsenal this week with their star man missing. Palmer has scored 20 goals with nine assists in 28 Premier League games this season. It is still to be seen whether he will recover from his illness in time for Chelsea's match with Aston Villa this weekend.

Unai Emery could have been a manager in demand this summer. However, he has now agreed to extent his contract with Villa until 2027. This news will have very been well recieved at Villa Park. Emery has Villa on the brink of Champions League qualification and it is great for Villa that he is planning on building on his success.

Villa are currently fourth in the Premier League and six points above Tottenham Hotspur -- who are in fifth place. However, Spurs do have two games in hand on Villa, so it is imperative that Emery's side do not take their foot off the gas.

When the two sides met earlier in the season, Villa won 1-0 thanks to a goal from Ollie Watkins. The England forward has scored 26 times in 47 games in all competitions this season.
