    Slightly flattering, though. Cech saved our skin yesterday. We do seem to be trying to shoe horn players into positions that don't suit them.

    Cech was superb yesterday. You're right of course, against a decent striker, we'd have been three down at half time.

    I'm guessing that Emery is trying to work out which of his players can play the way he want them to play. He needs to decide whether Cech's struggles with the ball at his feet outweigh his obvious ability as a goalkeeper.

    Ozil has to play as a number 10, absolutely no point sticking him out on the wing to accommodate Ramsey.

    Emery's going to need at least 2 more transfer windows to get the players he wants

    At least 2 more windows.

    Yup, but the same can be said for Ramsey and Mkhitarian. Not totally convinced that Auba is particularly comfortable wide left either.

    4-4-2 is the answer, imo

    Yes, I must say I've been slightly surprised by that. I'd assumed that all these modern coaches, you know, students of the game, would already be well aware of all that sort of thing.

    At least he is managing to win games while he's at it.

    He was too busy trying to manage Neymar's ego last season so probably didn't have enough time to check out potential employers and staff.
