And when things aren’t so good, we just need to run with it. He is so good for us. Just be thankful.

Emery needs a new contract  we need to keep him here as long as possible
He is literally  the god of management

tell you what, in all seriousness, Unai will get some magnificent approaches this summer, from the best of the best, we need to offer him the world, a stake in the club you name it, he should get it.

Great game, now a chance to rest before next Wednesday.  Good goals, no poor performances, fully deserved win.

Stated on here Unai lost me after the Spurs debacle. What an absolute dickhead I've become in my old age. Get the status's foundations dug now.

Same here, although not sure if I would have preffered to fuck over Spurs 4-2 if we had to do one of them or Liverpool.

What an amazing achievement. 

We've a core of players and a world class manager who over the past 3.5 half years achieved things that no one (apart from unai) would have thougt possible.

One more win on Wednesday and this squad go down in the history books. 

Ollie, Emi, McGinn, Konsa, Cash, Youri, Rogers, Digne, Beudina, Pau, Mings, Kamra - If the next week goes well they will never need to buy a pint again in their life and rightly so.

And Unai - how blessed we are to have him and long may it continue.  He's playing all this on hard mode and making it look easy!

The last 2 home games have been an absolute masterclasses - now the same on wednesday please

John McGinn, when I played he would have been touted as a soldier, solid, resolute, only knows one way, like Dalglish, type of player you treasure, they don't come around that often.

Best manager in my lifetime by a mile, Imagine how good we'd be if we could sort our recent recruitment out properly for him.

Fuck the chimney wankers, they aren't worth a mention in this thread.

Agreed.

Completely agree, don’t punch down.

A Conference League Semi Final
Champions League Qualification
FA Cup Semi Final
Europa League Final
Champions League Qualification
...beginning to unlodge the big 6
...not doing too bad so far the boy Emery

He'll get found out soon.

Its unsustainable.

Arsenal fans have tried to tell us.

Any season now.

Honest.

I can only agree with this, 100% correct, that said he has had to cope with this PSR shit, we all know it is shit, he's done it, but now we are CL again lets back Unai.

I did say last week that I had a feeling that we'd draw against Burnley and beat Liverpool.

You're welcome!

Do you get the impression that Unai had this planned all along?

Don't even go there. Everything we collectively know about football would just go straight out the window.

To answer your question: possibly.


With Unai anything is possible, did you see him talking about the final.....wow!!!!! this is going to be some game, Unai is up for this big time.

Just seen it. He scared me the other day, laughing like a mad man, so happy after a draw at Burnley, so proud of his team. Tonight he was post match the most I've ever seen him so relaxed.

Considering our start, losing the midfield for a quarter of the season and the overall financial position we find ourselves in what a quite extraordinary season.
