    Face facts: there's no way Emery will ever get us near a record as good as AW could achieve even in his latter years.
    And you base that fact on what exactly? Aw's later years was 3 FA cups and a team that was declining in the league. Well UE has beaten the last part within 1 season

    Imagine being the sort of dark-hearted, vicious bully who would mock non-natives for stroogling a little bit with the wild inconsistencies of our pronunciation. I'm sure Sir C wouldn't stoop to that.

    Emery's English is far superior to my Spanish, so mocking his linguistic capabilities would be a bit ironic, wouldn't it?

    He would wouldn't pronounce it stroogling a - it would be something like stroog-ah-HAY-leeng. i noticed rather sadly last night that his English is not progressing whatsoever. It means he isn't actually speaking it on a daily basis.

    I cannot love him. God knows I have tried but I cannot love him. I wanted Jurgen

    I'm basing it on the fact that we're total fúcking shít and are actually by some miracle a worse defensive unit now than we were under AW.

    Getting from 6th to 5th means nothing, since anything below 4th is nowhere. Emery hasn't won anything or achieved anything at all, meaning that he remains demonstrably inferior to even latter-day AW.

    You don't share his appalling choice of hair products and his aversion to dentistry though c?

    You are not pursuing your career in Spain, though. If you were and had been for the last 12-18 months, I'm willing to bet you'd speak better Spanish than he does English.

    Most of Europe manages to speak excellent English, though, a. What went wrong with him?

    I can't help it if he's backwards.

    Certainly I would have hoped for some discernible improvement by now... but I'm naturally inclined to shy away from that most appalling of British traits - monoglots mocking polyglots. It just doesn't sit well.
