Samuel Chukwueze has earned praises from his manager at Villarreal Unai Emery on his performance in their 1-1 draw against Huesca in their first La Liga game.
Chukwueze was on from start to finish operating as the right winger but during the course of the game he drifted to the middle as they seek to break down a resolute Huesca team.
Although he wasn’t at his fleeting best in the eyes of many, Emery however was pleased with his contribution and gave him a mention while speaking on the areas which he was happy about in the game.
“We were good defensively. We managed to snuff out the majority of our opponent’s counter-attacking actions, and we spent a lot of time near Huesca’s area due to our wing play. We lacked a bit of cutting edge in the final third. We want to improve on that”, he said.
