It's clear that Emery has a plan, it's also clear that our central defenders DO NOT have the ability to play that plan against the very top sides .... if you lack pace you lack pace, no amount of coaching will change that ....
So we've played two of the top sides knowing that our defence was likely to get done for pace, and that's exactly what happened .... but in Emery's defence what else could he do? ho has to work with what he has .....
So it was a big fail for our defence against two good sides, now let's see how they do against lesser teams ...
As for our attack, in our first two games we were clearly playing hoping to outscore the opposition ... and to be fair in both games we've had our share of chances ....
In a football world where the very top strikers cost 100m having two 50m strikers can work against you ... let's be honest if we had Salah, Aguero, even feckin' Kane as our main man we may well have six points now not zero .... again Emery can only work with what he has ....
Emery will need a couple of years to upgrade the squad .... he's got a plan, the players certainly look like they are playing for him ... two difficult games gone things will get better ....
