Our net spend is lower than Bournemouth’s.
A dozen minutes later, Cash received the ball on the right and drifted inside. Diaby ghosted around him on the overlap, received the ball from a deft outside-of-the-foot push, and returned it to Cash. That pass split two defenders and Cash finished like a forward. Only seconds earlier, Diego Carlos had been in possession within his own half. It was surgically clinical. It was, frankly, too easy.Afterwards Emery explained that he had studied Burnley’s opening-night performance against Manchester City at length. “They were playing man-to-man, playing tight to keep possession longer,” he said. “It was very difficult to do more than five, eight, 10, 12 passes in combinations. Today we caught the moments to do it.“The second goal was one positive example of the idea we have. When we can’t do passes, we have to be clinical and more direct than normal. I think we did, more or less, in 90 minutes respect them but always tried to impose our idea.”That, in a nutshell, is the attention to detail that Emery is famous for.

Jimmy Hogan.
There will be hiccups along the way but i'm really starting to believe that with Unai this is not only the start of something very special, but it's sustainable.
