As we say Goodbye! to Unai Emery and Hello! to Freddie Ljungberg, let’s take a look how the Arsenal players rated in Unai Emery’s final month in charge.
Handily, Arsenal sacked Emery at the end of November with no more games in that month left.
Our record was not good, even for a club traditionally bad in November.
We played five, won none, lost two and drew three. We also scored only five while conceding eight. When you look at the opponents – Wolves, Vitoria, Leicester, Southampton and Frankfurt – it seems even worse.
Unai Emery selected 21 players during the month of November but only Matteo Guendouzi and Lucas Torreira played every game.
Obviously, the more matches you play, the more player ratings points you collect, so the tables below are sorted both by total points for the month and then average.
It amuses me that the person at the top of the first table is Mesut Ozil…
