Totally the real deal - back him to the hilt - probably the best manager we’ve had since SGT mk1

Is that all it was? Feels like a lifetime already and the feel good factor just keeps getting better and better.

If the league had started the day Unai was appointed, we'd be joint top this evening (though Arsenal would have a game in hand).

Obviously the Leicester game is very winnable, but it's the two after that, Man City and Arsenal, that will let us know a lot about the impact Unai has had on these players.  The best two sides in the league this year, it would be great if we could get something from them.

Remember when we actually had Steven Gerrard as our manager?

Gerrard was such a fucking disaster. Absolute waste of time.

I think I speak for us all in that we are now counting down the hours to our next game and that is a good feeling.

Man City are weaker thanast season and we almost got something off them then. I think we will win one of the games against the Super Massive ESL 6.

What a difference having a top drawer manager makes, Emery in a short space of time has got the team set up how he wants and is getting results, the same players that Gerrard kept saying lacked quality, it was a quality manager we lacked.

That being said, without the gerrard year we wouldn't have had emery, as we would not have persuaded him to join a year earlier. In that sense things have worked out ok
