Arsenal legend Ian Wright has called for head coach Unai Emery to be given at least two years following our opening day defeat against champions Manchester City, ESPN reports.

We were comfortably defeated by Pep Guardiola’s men and while Emery clearly had a plan for the game, our execution was poor and many are now questioning if the players fit his style of play.

For Wrighty, that just means that he must be given more time to work on his ideas or to get through a few transfer windows and bring in the players that suit his style of play.

Whenever a new manager is brought in, forcing him to work with a group of players he may not fancy means that time must be granted, especially when that group mustered up our worst points total in Premier League history last season.

“Unai Emery needs at least, if we’re talking transfer window terms, he needs at least three or four transfer windows. So, if that means two seasons, then give him two seasons,” Wrighty told reporters.

“I think that we’ve had a manager for 20-odd years, and he was magnificent for us, and now we’ve got a manager who’s come in who has got pedigree. He’s good enough to be that manager who can go to the next level. So, why not give him time to do that?

“Give him the time to try and implement his style of play that he wants. Whether that means he’s got the players already or he’s going to have to bring them in throughout three or maybe four transfer windows, I believe he should get that and we should judge him then.”
