Emery has a massive job with these players. They're soft as shit.

Emery has a massive job with these players. They're soft as shit.Curing 'softness' is often a case of just putting in place a system the players believe in and making clear your expectations of them.I don't think our lads are world-beaters but they're better than fucking Newcastle, for example.For too long they've been told 'this is your position, roll your sleeves up, look me in the eye and create some magic'.Cultivate a system of play based on your strengths and your opponents' weaknesses and the players will respond. The ones that don't, you look to replace.We have more than enough to stay up. Now that the positivity vacuum has gone, we can give a real manager time and money to sort us out.

I just hope that Emery is tough enough to do what needs to be done. He comes across as an incredibly nice guy, he needs to have a tough core behind it. I'm not sure that was the case at Arsenal.

I'm not sure that was the case at Arsenal.I think it's acknowledged they tied his hands a bit with regards to getting rid and who they bought in.
When does he start, is it tomorrow?
Do we know for sure who he is bringing with him?That tit Balague was saying it’s an exciting appointment, someone who knows the PL yada yada yada
