Unai Emery

[Crown Hill]

I got the impression Pako was as much an analyst as anything. Constantly updating Unai and watching opposition warmup etc.

Unai meticulously at that so maybe wants to tighten up.

I met Pako at one of the events I think Guillem book launch and seemed a decent sort full of energy.

I read somewhere - it may even have been on here - that Unai doesn't so much bring in better players as better coaches to make existing players better. A lot of top managers regularly change their staff; the days of the bootroom are gone.

Changing his number 2 is a good longevity thing and provides a different voice. The Rodri guy I'm sure we'll also replace in time.
