Reggae  Boy  Leon  Bailey   and  his  Aston Villa  team  will play in the Champions League for the first time since 1983 after Tottenham was beaten 2-nil by Manchester City yesterday.

Unai Emery has enjoyed an impressive first full season at Villa Park, guiding his side to the Europa Conference League semi-finals and now confirming a top-four Premier League spot for the first time since 1996.

Spurs have lost five of their last six games, meaning they’ll have to settle for Europa League football next season.

Villa’s qualification marks just the seventh time a non ‘big-six’ side have qualified for the Champions League in the Premier League Era, following the achievement of  Blackburn, Newcastle,  Leeds and Leicester City.
