Being sacked and all, he would be desperate for - I mean want- the job

No he’s premier inn, not premier league.

The Sun say Emery blew away #Arsenal’s recruitment team — led by Gazidis, Sanllehi & Mislintat — during a stunning presentation a fortnight ago. He staggered them with a forensic analysis of every player in the squad & provided detailed stats & info on how he would improve them. https://t.co/4zrkaW8NJq

Emery made it clear he planned to build his vision around 2 key players he regards as central to his plans - Aubameyang & Ramsey. Emery’s depth of knowledge of every #Arsenal player left Gazidis & his team gobsmacked — & overshadowed every other presentation, including Arteta’s. https://t.co/DHLDXKN54R

Emery’s attention to detail was described as Guardiola-like & the calm passion he displayed immediately won over Gazidis & co. He knew more about the #Arsenal squad & every relevant detail about their career path & injury histories than people who had been at the club for years. https://t.co/piauQ4GIqt

Also, he has worked his way up from the lower divisions in Spain and has guided Valencia to 3 successive 3rd place finishes and of course won 3 europas with Seville.

In a way this is the ideal candidate we were hoping for. Only issue I can see is he doesn’t speak very good English.

So he only speaks a little bit the language - that's ok isn't it - oh, hang on that reminds me of someone...

Is our ground going to be renamed The Emery-ates?

very good

anyway i think Emery seems to be cut from the right cloth

Now I have had time to digest the shock news from last night, I am more than happy with this appointment. Much better than Arteta and finally, we will have a coach who has the ability to analyse the opposition and our own squad and see the strengths and weaknesses in both. Someone with tactical nous but still with an idea of how they want the team to play.

No matter what people think about his track record, he has still won the EL 3 times in a row and domestic trophies - so he has the experience.

He has clearly impressed the board enough for them to offer him the job, so that speaks for itself.

At the end of the day, the main things that we have spent the last 3-6 years berating Wenger for, have just all been addressed in one fell swoop.

He could have a very successful future with us if he does everything with the squad that his analyzing has afforded him to see.
We really don't have a bad squad bar 2-3 players, that with the right additions and Emery's knowledge, could very likely see us competing again

I feel much, much better today with the more I read about him and I think we should all be in good spirits with what might be to come next season!

What a surprise. Gaz is so unpredictable.

A good little video where he talks about his philosophy. Plenty of detail, tactics and video analysis seems to be his remit. Great news.

All well and good. But this is a guy that went a whole season without winning an away game.

For all his great tactics, his PSG teams struggled against Ligue 1 teams that actually had a plan and didn't just concede from the start.

And i don't wanna hear bout his time at Valencia. Cause all he did was just accomplish the minimum requirement.

Woo hoo
