Aston Villa’s summer signing Moussa Diaby has brought exactly what the club needed — pure speed and unpredictability.

The French winger hit the ground running, immediately forming a deadly connection with Ollie Watkins. His direct style, low center of gravity, and willingness to shoot on sight have made him a nightmare for defenders.

Unai Emery’s system suits Diaby well, giving him space to break behind the lines and isolate full-backs. He’s also shown good awareness, often cutting inside to find a teammate or test the keeper.

While he’s still adjusting to the physicality of English football, Diaby’s impact has been clear — goals, assists, and relentless energy.

With Villa chasing European qualification, Diaby’s spark could be the X-factor down the stretch.
