Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud is set to meet his former side on Saturday. Ahead of the game, The France International has revealed his former team-mates are very happy with new boss Unai Emery.
He told
ESPN: "It's a new adventure for them with a new coach.
"I think Emery has settled well in the club, the players like him, the way they are training, his philosophy of the game.
"I spoke with some of them and they are quite happy, but you don't forget what Arsene Wenger achieved in this club.
"He basically built this club - if you take the different teams that used to train under Wenger, there were some unbelievable teams.
"We need to be patient with Emery and I think he will do very well at Arsenal. I'm not sure they're better than before [yet], but one thing for sure is they've got a nice future."
