The club gallantly represente the country on the continent, picking up victories over the likes of Bayern Munich, Celtic, RB Leipzig and Bologna.
Emery’s men reache the quarter-finals and came close to pulling off one of the all-time great comebacks against PSG. Despite going out, Villa went further in the competition than any other English side and they certainly earne a lot of respect.
