Unai Emery explains what he is still trying to change from Arsene Wenger era

Arsenal currently sit 5th in the league with 41 points and are 6 points behind 4th placed Chelsea. And Arsenal head coach Unai Emery says he still needs to improve the Arsenal defence after he took over Arsene Wenger. The Gunners have only made one defensive signing last summer, bringing in Sokratis from Borussia Dortmund for around £15million. Meanwhile, Unai Emery has been dealing with several defensive injuries with Rob Holding being currently out, while Hector Bellerin, Shkodran Mustafi and Sead Kolasinac have all struggled for full fitness during this season and Laurent Koscielny has just returned back from long-term injury. (via Mirror) "When I arrived, we spoke about the Arsenal before Wenger, which was consistent in defence but didn’t have much brilliance in attack," Emery told Sky Sports. "In the transition under Wenger, it was about making the most of that defensive work and adding more quality in attack, which was when Arsenal were a winning team. "But in the last few years it became different. It was a team which always had a great attack, with players who were very good technically, but with a very, very low level of defensive solidity. Now, we are in a transition where we are looking for a balance."
