Finding my rhythm is key insists Villa star Amadou

AMADOU Onana admits that finding consistency remains his biggest personal challenge, after starring in Aston Villa’s impressive victory over Manchester City on Sunday.
Villa boss Unai Emery
The Belgian midfielder returned from a hamstring injury just before the October international break and has since started in each of Villa’s last three matches, including the triumph at Tottenham and the 1-0 win over City.
Villa have now won five of their last six games in all competitions, and their last four in the Premier League - a remarkable turnaround considering they went six matches without a win at the start of the campaign.
“This is football. Anything can happen. We were in quite poor form in the beginning but we managed, as a team, to turn it around, this is what it was about,” Onana said after Sunday's win at Villa Park.
“It is just hard work, dedication and belief in the manager’s plan, belief in the quality we have in the team. Just belief, honestly.
