“Now we are focused on the matches we are playing. It is the last match here.

“I don’t know. We will see. We will see about the team, the players. They are responding and are so focused on how we are preparing each match.

“We have more points to play for against Manchester United. We will see how we can get better for the next season.”

Unai Emery on Emiliano Martínez’s future.



"As a manager, you have to understand sometimes, face to face, being honest is the best way to get your response.

“Malen is a very good professional. He is understanding. He did not sign here for six months. He signed to be here, hopefully, for a long time.

"Malen is performing fantastic. He is playing as a substitute but wow, this season that has been very important, scoring goals, always with chances to score, always helping the team in moments when we need something special, something different.

"The problem is when you don't have enough players to play. This is the problem. We had it, this problem."

Unai Emery on Donyell Malen.



“Very happy. We won and we are on a run but still have work to do. We have to be ready and be consistent.

“We finished the season here with our supporters and our energy and our wishes to be in Europe. We still have chances to play in the Champions League.

"They [Spurs] competed well and did a fantastic job. We were consistent, demanding and when we scored the first goal, they gave up. Good luck to them in the final.

"We needed to manage the 90 minutes and we worked it out fantastically. We are being demanding at this moment. We can get the Champions League, fantastic.

"We are wishing to continue in the season we are doing. We are now in a good moment. We try to play well and in our best moments. Some players are enjoying it now.

"We are going to continue in our plan. We will work tomorrow and have Sunday and Monday off."

Unai Emery, post-match



We work on set pieces nearly every day. We have a set piece coach in, we worked on that specific corner and it came off. We knew we had to score early in the second half and give the fans something to cheer for.

"We knew this game was must win. We want to play Champions League football again. We had a taste of it this season and for us, as players, it is a competition you want to play in. It's the main goal for us going into the last game.

"We knew Tottenham had a final on Wednesday, but we needed to stay focused to win.

"We are taking it game-by-game really. We had to go to Bournemouth and win then the focus was on this game. We will rest now and focus on Manchester United.

"It isn't in our hands as of yet but we will do all we can."

Ezri Konsa, post-match.


"I’ve been welcomed really well. It feels like home.

“Everyone is trying to help me get better every day & I’m really grateful for opportunity.

“We have such a strong midfield, it makes it tough. You’ve got to be on your best game to be in starting XI.”
