We didnt deserve to win, Emery suggested, via Villas website. [Wolves] performed fantastically.Emery believes Wolves have been better than their results have suggested. In the last match they played at home, they drew against Arsenal the best team in the Premier League and maybe in the world this year, said the Spaniard.And last week, against Crystal Palace, they lost in the last minute [when they had] one player less they deserved more.Everything we have analysed about them makes this not an easy match we can feel it as a derby. They are playing at home with their supporters, and they will feel it necessary to show their capacity against us. Topics: Aston Villa F.C. Premier League Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C.
