How Arsenal will look under Unai Emery

Arsene Wenger's departure from Arsenal after almost 22 full seasons brought to an end an era at the club, and with Unai Emery taking the reins, the club could look totally different in the 2018/19 season.

Unai Emery born 3 November 1971 is a Spanish football manager and former player. He is the current manager of Premier League club Arsenal. Unai Emery is married to Luisa Fernandez since 1998. They have a son Lander (born March 29 2003).

Emery will take over a club not in the Champions League and as far away from challenging for the Premier League title as any of the teams inside the division's top six.
Chief executive, Ivan Gazidis has done his best to prepare the Gunners for Wenger's departure and has constructed a footballing structure that is said to rival that of any club on the continent.

Tactics are an important part of developing a team, yet for the moment the real focus at London Colney has to be on the transfer market.
Premier League clubs have until August 9 to complete their incoming deals, and in a World Cup year this is incredibly problematic.
Laurent Koscielny will be absent right through until after Christmas with an Achilles injury, whilst Petr Cech's performances in 2018 have declined to a worrying level.
Midfield has been an area of concern for a while, whilst there is a desperate need to boost Hector Bellerin's confidence after a disastrous season.
Arsenal underperformed in the past season, however it would be foolish for anyone within the club's new power structure to believe this means sizable investment isn't required to give Emery the best possible chance to succeed.
