Unai Emery’s work in the transfer market at Aston Villa is set to face greater scrutiny this season, with former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher suggesting that the manager’s recruitment could become a major talking point.
Emery has overseen significant changes to the Villa squad since arriving at the club, bringing in a number of players as he looks to build a team capable of competing at the highest level in England and Europe.
However, despite the progress made under the Spanish manager, questions have occasionally been raised over some of his transfer decisions.
Carragher believes those questions will become even louder following another busy summer in the transfer market.
“If there is one criticism on Unai Emery, it would probably be his signings at Aston Villa”

@Carra23 says there will be more eyes on Villa’s signings this summer.
Villa have continued to reshape their squad during the current window, with several new arrivals expected to play important roles under Emery.
The pressure will now be on those signings to settle quickly and justify the investment made by the club.
With expectations around Villa higher than ever, every new arrival will be closely watched. Emery has already established Villa as a serious side, but the success of his latest recruitment could ultimately determine how far they can go this season.
