Performance-wise there's a lot to be desired but you'd hope that will come in time. If we can nick 4th that would be a very decent return for Emery, I'm not convinced at all we will get the job done but it's good to be in the mix again after being out in the wilderness for all of the last season.
Exactly, we have to give him time to sort out the style of play, but in terms of results we are moving in the right direction after taking a big step back after last season, and finishing a point off fourth in 2017.

With the top six as it is, I wonder how easy it is to judge success by top four finishes. There will always be two 'big' teams that miss out (assuming Spurs stick around). When there was only a top four (Us, Utd, Chelsea and one of City/Liverpool/Spurs) it was easier to judge. Now there are six it's a little tougher.
