MOR THAN UP FOR THE FIGHT

MORGAN ROGERS says it’s easy to pick out Arsenal’s dangerman – it’s all of ‘em.

Aston Villa’s powerful midfielder (left) is looking to take his Premier League bow at the Emirates this afternoon.

And he does so mindful of the threat that the Gunners pose – not just up front but from all areas of the pitch.

Asked to pinpoint their strengths, he said: “Where do you want me to start – it’s the whole team!

“It’s going to be difficult – whichever position you look at. But I’m looking forward to it. It’s a big game, away from home and these are the games you want to play in. They’re one of the best teams in England, if not the world, so we know how tricky it will be.”

Villa stunned Mikel Arteta’s men four months ago when they sealed a 1-0 victory over them at Villa Park.

John McGinn’s early goal was sufficient for Unai Emery’s men to defend on an off-day in front of goal for the Gunners.

Rogers added: “Although I wasn’t at the club when the two sides first played, I did watch the game. We’ve beaten them once, why can’t we do so again? That’s how we’re going to look at it.”

Rogers’ arrival from Championship Middlesbrough during the January window was a surprise. But he is taking the opportunity with both hands – and proving difficult to stop once he gets into his stride with the ball at his feet. He bagged his first Premier League goal for Villa during the 3-3 draw with Brentford last week.

However, he was caught up in controversy this week when Lille manager Paulo Fonseca accused the Villa man of ‘blocking’ basketball-style during their Europa Conference League quarter-final.

Unsurprisingly, Rogers, 21, didn’t share the same opinion as Fonseca on his role in Ollie Watkins’s opening goal.

He said: “They’re entitled to their opinion, of course, but I didn’t think it was a foul.

“I’m within my rights to stand where I stood – my opponent’s got to be stronger.”
