Harvey Elliott has expressed his joy towards Aston Villa's stoppage-time winner, despite his struggles at the Birmingham club. Arsenal’s title ambitions suffered a setback on Saturday as the Gunners fell 2-1 to Villa at Villa Park.



Elliott was once again left out of the matchday squad for Villa’s clash with Arsenal and has not featured for the club in any competition since October 2. Ironically, the player Emery had previously said was blocking Elliott’s path into the team ended up scoring Villa’s decisive goal against Arsenal.

"But now it is difficult because he has other players playing and performing well, for example, Emi Buendia and other players."

The midfielder is fully fit and available for selection, yet he was overlooked for the Arsenal game, with Villa’s bench featuring George Hemmings, an 18-year-old who has yet to make a Premier League appearance.
