My reasoning would be that I couldn't see us in this position if AW was still manager. So for the first season after a generation of 1 man running the club it has been a pleasing outcome imo. Lots of work still to do but heading in the right direction

The fact that we finished 5th two seasons ago and 6th last season and were the same distance away from relegation as we were from 1st.
That made making the top 4 an improvement and people like to see things improving rather than getting worse.
It really isn't that difficult.
I really don't like to engage in ad hominem attacks, but your Ramsey hating self does make that difficult.
We had a hope of finishing top 4 and a good cup run in the last two years. That's really all we will ever have under Emery.
OK. But right now, I'm asking you.
You say you were OK with this "outcome" a couple of years ago. So again, what has changed?
"Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.
"But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."
Because if you spend months moaning like a little b1tch about Wenger being sacked you might look stupid if you accept that the new manager has done better than Wenger so you have to make out that he hasn't in order to protect your ego?
You've gone and spoiled it now.
Quite right though, we should always be happy with this no matter who's in charge or how much we spend. Because that's football.

You didn't think he was going to give you that answer, did you red? No matter how true it is, of course.
If we were to make that change on a performance improvement, it had to be to a point where we could harbour some realistically higher hopes.
I thought it was time for Wenger to leave, that view was more from a human than performance perspective, but it was time.
We've changed to someone who may win us a Europa League, but never the league. Hurrah.
So you've come to the conclusion that we can never win the league under Emery and state it as a fact even though he has yet to complete a single season with us and has won both Ligue 1 and 3 consecutive EL trophies with a relatively poorly funded team in Sevilla.
You couldn't show your workings here in a little more detail could you?
BTW, my Ramsey hating is always slightly tongue in cheek and has become even more so under Emery who has him playing at a higher level than he did under Wenger, I would now keep him at Arsenal if I had a choice, but not at 300K a week
