76/77 was a 42 game season and if it had been 3 points for a win back then, 69 points. W22 D7 L13

Their tally of 73 top-flight goals this season is their highest since 1976-77, when they scored 76 and finished fourth.

it's why he rubs his face so much in the interviews, he can't feel it.

So how far onto the pitch did Emery run to get a booking? I don't remember seeing Captain Black or Klippety get them.

Unai Emery asked if he will watch Tottenham vs Man City on Tuesday night: "I will watch a match tomorrow - the one from tonight. Then I will watch Crystal Palace for Sunday."

We've now matched the 76/77 goals for total with 76. And done it in 5 fewer games.

I love him so much I'm not even joking.

I hope he realises how much he means to us and how grateful we are for what he's doing with the club.

Its just unbelievable.

I actually feel a bit emotional when I see him or hear his name.

When was the last time we had a positive double figure goal difference in the prem?

Unai Emery: "I never use injured players as an excuse because other teams have that as well. We try to use the players we have available. For example, it was fantastic how Calum Chambers helped us recover the ball for the second goal."
