Aston Villa face Celtic in their final Champions League group game on Wednesday .

Unai Emery's side have struggled to cope with the demands of both competitions.

They have dropped domestic points straight after a European game, and fatigue is clearly playing a big part in their performances.

To achieve their twin goals they will need to have all their best players available in the latter stages of the season .

Tyrone Mings has been one of Villa 's most consistent players this season .

Villa will be short at the back again if Mings is ruled out for a long time.

Emery has not been afraid to say his target is trophies.

He has changed the attitudes of many people at the club by stressing the importance of being meticulous in everything.
