That was awful.
Emery is a Dick.
Of you f***, Emery
:wave:
Utter shit.
He has to go. We're awful.
Time for emery to go. So much money spent and our midfield is so boring. Its just dull. Keeper makes one decent save.
That sucked the big one.
At least we get to watch our best team on Thursday.
I dislike Emery more each game.
Pathetic all over the park...nicely teed up by a crap lineup.
Get Allegri in, this guy has no fucking clue! Awful football!!
15 points after 9 games, we're only 5th because everyone else is terrible.
In Wenger's last season, by a distance his worst, we had 16 points after 9 games.
Emery is taking us nowhere.
The good news is, the contract is 3 years NOT 2 years with the option for a 3rd.
Give me strength.
GD of 1.
It's embarrassing stuff.
What do we all expect ?
Arsenal are a very poor side and this is why it will be a miracle if they get into the top 4 this or any other season.
They don't have the belief away from home, especially against teams that are over physical.
I can't see it EVER changing.
Hardly a shock result. We’ve struggled against practically every team in the league away from home, for about 2 years now.
Time to knock it on the head with Emery, it’s not working and he hasn’t got a clue.
Well. According to some people "anyone" would have been better than our previous manager.Quote:

So, yeah. I expected a bit more from Emery. Not miracles but I didn't expect all the same failings we've been complaining about for years still apparent on his second season.
That's the saddest thing about this whole story- he'll play the supposed 2nd team on Thursday and they'll blow our minds with scintillating football.Quote:

Two weeks to prepare and everyone fit and he starts the same lineup that has been stinking up the place all season.
Just our luck to be stuck with a truly poor coach in a season where we've got so much potential and all our rivals look considerably weaker.
Just watch Emery start the next match with exactly the same team.
I thought Pepe was our most dangerous player today and generally played well. But his mazy run and shocking miss really reminded me of one of Gervinho's misses when he played for us. :d
If Wenger had still been in charge, Arsenal would have been in the relegation places.Quote:

Oh yeah.....This year I can't wait for that fuhking Europa league and those games to come round. Cheap tickets and we actually get to see the best players.
I thought Pepe failed to score today because he didn't want to use his right foot.....and I actually thought that was the same reason he didn't score against Liverpool.

What a masterstroke we pulled off hiring this guy.
In this worst ever season we finished 6th, so BULLSHIT.Quote:

So stop talking bollox. Wenger needed to go, certainly. Emery needs to go now. He's spent a lot of money has fixed none of the problems we have and if anything we're regressing even further under him.
Lol..... I knew I started calling him Gervinho for a reason!Quote:

Even though Saka was just slightly above average today, he definitely was more meaningful to our attack than Pepe.
Any reasonable coach would realise that our most dangerous front 3 would have to be Auba, Laca and Saka.... for now anyway.
I'm not sure why you keep doing this Letters.Quote:

However even you repeatedly point out the fact that AW had to go for this club to move forward... and personally even under this clown called Emery, I think we've moved on better than lets say a Man U has in a shorter period of time.
If what you are trying to say is that AW would do a better job with the team as it currently constitutes - I for one say hell yeah! But again if AW had stayed unchallenged, we certainly wouldn't have this team that looks like it can go places ( thats if the problems AW created can finally be addressed).
Pepe is quite obviously a player who is only suited to counter attacking. He is going to become a massive flop if we don’t use him that way. I already think he might be a bust.
It’s very easy for us to be armchair fans and slate Emery. But the facts are he is doing a rotten job and should be on his final warning now.
Defence is a mess, zero improvement since Wenger. Midfield is a mess...zero improvement since Wenger. Offensively we look disjointed. We have 3 top class attackers and can barely trouble Sheffield United.
Emery has made a complete mess of this team, he has got pretty much everything wrong.
We're going nowhere with Emery, we'd be better off replacing him now and giving another manager the rest of the season to get the squad in the right shape so that he's ready to go next season.
Emery based on what he's been doing doesn't deserve any more time, defensively we're shocking, we now lack creativity as well, he plays people in the wrong positions, picks players time and time again who should be dropped (Kolasinac, Sokratis, Luiz, Xhaka), there's no system and there's no improvement.
We've been awful all season in the league, even games we've won we've been average at best in, on top of that we have no creativity and yet Ozil isn't so much as on the bench.
4th place was literally handed to us on a plate last season and we blew it, it seems to be happening again and yet again it's the same old story.
Spot on, for me we should replace him ASAP, not waste any more time, if we give him til the end of the season we just lose another year.Quote:

Emery has changed precisely nothing in terms of the culture and football we play. We’re hopeless.
We tried, we failed. Time to try again and find the right man for the job. We can’t afford to let this idea of giving people time to set in again, especially for coaches with no credit in the bank.
Just gonna leave this here
Slake (@Cerebrone) Tweeted:
Unai Emery had a team with Baraja, Silva, Mata, Joaquin and Villa but refused to try to keep the ball against NINE men. I’m not kidding. He told his players to hoof it.
They hoofed it randomly. And whenever Madrid picked up the ball, they funneled it to Robben. https://twitter.com/Cerebrone/status...212372480?s=17
i agree get rid of Emery, no sign of improvement. We don't have a single midfielder that seems to score goals regularly or able to run with the ball and beat players.Quote:

We have been terrible in the league for nearly a year now. This isn't just a blip, and the longer the manager stays in place the less likely we are to make the top 4. Raul and Edu have a big decision to make, sooner rather than later.
When I look at some of the players we have a lot of coaches could do so much with them, Emery doesn't know how to use them he won Ligue 1 with PSG yes (which on a par with the Scottish Premiership *sorry*) Emery needs to go now from what I read the people in charge have in it in them to be ruthless so do it we missed out on Rogers who didn't do such at bad job at Liverpool. is there anyone currently available who could take over ASAP we the fans and players need it.
I never thought I’d say this but Rodgers would be a decent shout! He has shown with Leicester that he knows what’s he’s doing and his teams are organised and good to watch.
Emery is clueless and a chicken. He is too negative and too scared to take the game to the opposition.
Emery is useless. Sometimes teams succeed inspite of the coach. This must have been the case at Sevilla. He has been a disaster everywhere since.

There is no understanding of his team's strengths or how to get the best out of what is actually a decent bunch of players. Most importantly, Emery is a coward in times when other teams are showing what can be achieved with a positive attitude. Emery was hired to solidify the team and instill some tactical nous. He is doing the opposite. We are just as bad defensively as we were under AW - a coach who admitted that he simply allowed his players freedom to express themselves. Yet offensively, with all of the attacking talent at his disposal, our coach appears to have zero idea about how to build a platform and link our forwards with his midfield. Noone can identify what Emery is trying to achieve - and the only logical conclusion is that he does not really have a clue.
I was prepared to see what he could do with some decent signings, yet if anything he has gone backwards since this time last season. His negative and unclear mindset seems to have transmitted itself directly to the players, and while I would not say that he has lost the dressing room yet, for me the players have little or no faith in his methods.
I would be happy to see him gone.
