Emery has a massively difficult task and it would be unfair to give up on him after a season. There are no guarantees either way. I just think the upside is very limited with Emery and that a Europa League win is all we can aspire to.
Yes, all very true although I think it is far too early to draw conclusions re Unai’s upside. There’s currently both reason for optimism and reason to be concerned. However, regardless of how it turns out it is important to remember that we now have something that was no longer possible under Wenger.

Hope.
