Arsenal just got handed a demoralising 5-1 loss by Premier League leader, Liverpool, last night and Unai Emery is ready to make the necessary changes to improve.
Latest reports claim that the Gunners boss has made it absolutely necessary to make at least two signings in the upcoming transfer window – an Aaron Ramsey replacement in midfield and a centre-back.
When asked whether Arsenal struggled to keep pace with Liverpool, Emery said, “Yes, maybe. Maybe the result is one like you’re telling us after our goal. I think we started well. At the beginning we had good positioning but after our goal, they pushed it, and when they push it here they play with great determination and they have the players to do the difference, above all in all the pitch, but our box.”
“They scored three goals and it was a difficult moment for us but we spoke in the dressing room as it’s another experience for us. Bad experience, bad experience but to learn.The second half we need to stand up and keep our position in the game. The two last goals, the two penalties, I think is a lot for us.”
“I think it’s going to help the referees to take better decision and we only can think now about the match on Tuesday, not the difference between Liverpool and us. It’s not like today the result, maybe we can do one balance and mix between our goal. We have a lot of work to do. Defensively also we know we need to get better.”
The North London outfit have been pushed two points behind in the top four race which could increase after Chelsea’s next fixture against Crystal Palace.
