Aston Villa fullback Álex Moreno is enjoying his time under head coach Unai Emery.

The defender arrived in January from Real Betis, having been brought in by Emery.

Moreno has now thanked his Spanish head coach and his coaching staff for helping him to settle so quickly at Villa Park.

“He's been clear with his ideas and I've felt comfortable since day one," he said to the club website.

“He has achieved what he has achieved in his career and that makes him who he is as a manager.

“He has a good staff behind him who transmit his ideas to the team.

“They give confidence and we are doing really well thanks to him and his staff.

“I think his career reflects how he is as a coach and that will prepare us for the games coming up which will be tough.

“He has been quite clear with his ideas. He has always felt really comfortable from day one.

“We want to continue that and his ideas, because it seems to be working."
