What's wrong with them? Only problematic one I see is Pepe in hindsight. At the time it seemed like a good signing albeit fee was very high.

He wanted Zaha. The board got him Pepe.

Emery’s track record in Europe is good. I think he wants to prove that he can be good manager in PL.

Yeah it is, also he didn’t do terrible with Arsenal imo. 21 game unbeaten run, 55% win rate and just one point from a champions league spot. 

 

I agree I think he has fire in his belly to do a good job in the PL. Hopefully, it will be with us. Got a good feeling about this!

It's an absolute banger tbf. Doesn't really habe singalong anthem qualities though. Keep it lower down the pre-match order.

 

Need Sam Fender to bash out something YNWA-ish.

 

 

 

Aye. Big River as the fans are filtering in. Moving through 'Comin home Newcastle then Blaydon Races, Local Hero then the Old Spice theme.

Craig hope on talk sport any time now if anyone can listen in ?

 

He said he's the man Amanda wants, she tried on the Friday they took over but Emery had a few concerns so they interviewed other people, but he was always first choice, Hope has doubts the current players are good enough and the club has sounded out players from the continent who are out of contract in the summer so would be available for a knock down fee in January.

I’m quite excited about Emery I won’t lie, now watch him flop big time [emoji38]

 

If he does I imagine we won't be scared to let go. While some may argue we could start shipping Managers out for nothing in particular which isn't great either the fact is under Ashley we had no choice but to hope they did good or quit as Mike wasn't going to be shelling out to let go of a team and hire a new one.

He'll not flop. He'll at min do an average job with what he has and get them to play at lead to their level. Right now that's much improvement. Going forward with better players it's enough to see us not fuck around in relegation spots and put cup runs together. For me that's more than enough for the next 3 years or so,however we've got a big job on to survive and that's all that matters this season.

Planning ahead. I can get used to this!

So, Emery comes in. We staying up?

 

With someone like Emery in charge of our squad I think it's fair to expect 6-9 points from our next 5 games. I'd be a lot more optimistic going into the Leicester game as well.

So much hinges on the next half a dozen games imo. If we close the gap a bit there then I think we'll find a way and end up comfortable.

Yes, based on nothing but belief in a manager that can, organise and motivate a team to be at least as good as the sum total of its parts and hopefully more. Plus a few new faces in January! 
UNAITED :indi:

Yup. 

 

Heart is saying yes personally. Head says we have to be on ~15 points by January. We have 4 now, where are the 11 coming from? The next 5? Brighton, Brentford, Norwich, Burnley, Leicester? Shouldn't panic I suppose, Emery is a top appointment and should steer us clear.

Hoping for some signings as well. 

 

We've performed the worst I've ever seen a football club perform in my life, and we're still only 6 points behind. It's very early days. 

 

It's not an easy task by any means, how he starts will be very important. But I think he can do it.

My big concern watching that is the reliance on fast centrebacks, its something which was obvious and not addressed in the summer. 

 

Everything else gets really excited for the future. Tactics, game plans and indentity!
