Only got a call up last time through injuries. Theo and Mendy are miles ahead of him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 44 minutes ago, Made In Aston said: Emery strikes me of more of a Mourinho type, who isn't tied to a specific way of playing and adapts the system and style to whoever the opposition is. Yes, that was actually a criticism that came from an Arsenal friend of mine. That he has no ‘style or philosophy’ it changes from one game to the next responding to the opponent. For a team in our position that sounds more like a strength than a weakness 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest av1 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 6 hours ago, PieFacE said: I just hope the players really buy into his ideas. I think they will, but aren’t too concerned if they don’t. by that, I mean that in the modern game players rule the roost as its far easier and cheaper to replace the manager than it is to replace 5/6 players. A situation like this is slightly different. The manager is an Elite level manager and one of the best in the world, and we can’t really say that about many/any of our players. So if for example (and I’m just picking players at random here, nothing personal) McGinn, Bailey and Cash decided to throw their toys out of the pram, I’d imagine the club would bin all 3 before considering getting rid of the manager. And players aren’t stupid, they will know it’s either shape up or ship out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excited and looking forward to us actually being coached by someone who uses tactics. That's great. Finally we have a manager who has the balls to ring an early change when it's clearly not working!

Multi europa cup winner and better record at PSG than Tuchel and Pochettino seems elite to me. He has a better record than Tuchel and Pochetino in management point blank.

PieFacE Posted October 25, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted October 25, 2022 (edited) So how often has Emery won his first game in charge?
