  • I have a soft spot for Unai, too.

    My take on Emery was never the language barrier, but that he inherited mostly the same shit squad that Arteta spent the better part of two seasons trying to clear out. Hindsight is 20/20, but you had a lot of “senior” players that were checked out mentally. No wonder he failed.

    It took someone with a bit more resolve and vision to come in and steer the ship, but I imagine most managers would have failed in Emery’s shoes.

    That’s a credit to Arteta, not a dig at Unai.
