What does success look like for Emery?
« on: October 24, 2022, 09:15:21 PM »
We had a similar thread for Gerrard so why not Emery. This feels a lot more of a serious appointment so should the expectation be altered to suit?

Long-term back in Europe and winning a cup. Lofty ambition clearly, but this is a big appointment.

Get us into Europe, keep us in Europe, end the trophy dought. Ideally, get us into the Champions League.

Short term, I'll settle for safe by March and at least two or three fun wins against the Sky Six wankers.

He himself won't be coming here to be a solid mid-table manager

Put me in the "he's not here to fuck about" camp. A trophy inside two seasons. Including this one.

Challenging for Europe within a couple of seasons assuming he is backed fully in the transfer market and a decent cup run.

He also needs to pick a better captain than McGinn, maybe Emi M whom he must know from their Arsenal days.

Being best of the rest like West Ham and Leicester have been for the past few years.  But first we have to stay up.

Top 10 this season and then whether we finish in the top 5 or not we have to be challenging for it come the latter stages. There are a lot of clubs vying for Europe now so it will be some feat to get in.

In the short term, make us credible, worthy of the Premier League.  Within a couple of years, make us the envy of all the 'also rans', knowing that we will be the next big thing to turn the top six into the top 8, alongside the barcodes.  Make us competitive, going into any game at all and believing that we stand a chance. Oh, then sit back and enjoy the 55 to 60 thousand crowds.  Make us cup favourites please.
