Villa players knew of Emery’s fondness for the England Under-21 international before January’s FA Cup trip to Middlesbrough. Emery re-affirmed Rogers’ threat in analysis sessions. A lot of the preparation, from a defensive standpoint, centred on him. Immediately after the game, future team-mates told Rogers of Emery’s admiration.

The role of an Emery No 10 is regarded as among the most nuanced and physically taxing positions. It necessitates intelligence in the timings of movements and recognising when to counter-press and when to sit in a compact shape. Upon turnovers, players must be in positions to break on transition, carrying the ball forward from deep areas.

“In his first game, at Sheffield United, he had a chance that went over the crossbar,” says Belgrave. “If it came towards the end of the season, he scores. Morgan’s willingness and footballing brain allowed him to adjust out of possession — I remember he conceded a few fouls away to Luton — but he learned quickly.”

Great seeing how much work he's put in over pre-season, and how many others have done so as well. Might have even tapped up Gibbs-White for us.

Its going to be a big season for him and its great to see how focussed he is on being prepared for it, England cap by Easter I reckon.

This is absolutely fantastic.  I was really quite underwhelmed by this signing but he has become an incredible prospect.  I love the attitude he is showing and he seems to have a fantastic support network with his two brothers.

I'm really hopeful for him for this season and tbh he hasn't left my draft fantasy team at all yet - and yes (sadly) I take that shite far too seriously.  Also got Leon and Ollie at the moment which is a bit Villa heavy tbh, but they're all such good value.

Since Jacob Tanswell has moved to covering Villa (used to be Southhampton, I believe), the quality from The Athletic has been really good.

The future's bright with Tanswell and Rogers at the Villa.
