It will get stale and boring soon It might just be me, but I haven't got the faintest interest in how the f he greets people, or how a bunch of idiots make it sound. In an ideal world no one would even mention it anymore but focus on the game and what he can do for the Villa, and for me Emery might as well waltz into all press meetings wearing a marilyn monroe whig, speaking in tongues and greet us by playing a random Beatles song on a trombone with his bare ass. OK, in that case even I might be tempted to find the youtube clip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emery did well at Arsenal, the problem they had was a poor finishing run and unrealistic post Wenger era expectations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daft Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 3 minutes ago, Mic09 said: I guess Emery failed at arsenal in a similar way that Smith failed at Villa. That is, he didn't fail. I mean, it depends I suppose. The Arsenal squad back then was a bit all over the place, wasn't it? I think it's hard to judge him too harshly in either direction based on his spell there. For us, he will bring meticulousness and tactical awareness and skill at a level we have never had in a manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF he goes about learning the right way instead of jumping queue. I'm sure he will have taken tough lessons from his spell here. So literally anyone can be a great manager. Possibly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinebro Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 (edited) You can just imagine yourself managing in Spain. Working hard on learning the language then people making fun of the way you said "How are you". On top of that a meme being created and you're being mocked weekly. Don't you think you would find it cool or amusing. Edited October 27, 2022 by Pinebro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Willard Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 It's tough. I have no doubt if Emery was given more time in these droughts he wouldve pulled through. 7 games is a long stretch but across a season it's really not that much. As long as you see a plan in place.

That will be his biggest challenge. Absolute non-issue. For one, he can speak the language fluently. For another, he’s likely to have a captain or VC in Emi Martinez who can translate where necessary (I don’t think he’ll need to). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is it though. They played awful football at that point and conceded so many goals. Teams couldn't wait to play them. You can't say the sacking wasn't just. Harsh possibly but not completely unfair. But as I said Arsenal and Aston Villa are different clubs with different expectations and he isn't succeeding Arsene Wenger. He is succeeding Steven bloody Gerrard Seem to be doing incredibly well at so called underdog clubs although he did do well at PSG. But then again that is a one team league.

Most of the time he clearly says Good EVENING. Also, seems a polite man. Good afternoon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I reckon if Emery tries to put Brummy spin on his words it will confuse the enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were a bit of a mess to be fair. He did sign a couple of them though. Not sure how much control he had over transfers but his business was very hit and miss. Only Martinelli, Saliba and Tierny left in the squad. Pepe was a complete disaster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the multiple things I've read, it seems his approach is also heavily psychological. Our mentality seems to have let us down quite often so this is very good. It's a good job we didn't sign Luis Suarez 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 He comes across as an absolute gentleman, and I think we have been blessed to get him. Also, he does look a bit like a slightly deceased Austrian pop star from the 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember he tried playing out from the back at Arsenal and got criticized for it because a lot of times it wasn't working. We don't got a lot of ball playing centre halves so can see him adapting until he gets his own players in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
