Londonski Arsenal sljedeće srijede očekuje finale Europske lige protiv gradskog rivala Chelseaja, a pobjeda u toj utakmici jako je bitna Topnicima jer im je to jedina šansa da izbore nastup u Ligi prvaka sljedeće sezone.
Do utakmice ima još tjedan dana, a trener Arsenala Unai Emery uoči njega dao je intervjuu španjolskoj Cadeni Ser.

On je optimističan uoči utakmice koja je vjerojatno i najvažnija u razdoblju otkad vodi Topnike.
Emery je trener Arsenala od početka ove sezone, a na klupi je naslijedio legendarnog stratega Arsenea Wengera koji je odstupio nakon 22 godine vođenja Topnika.

'Svaki trener bi došao ovdje da ima priliku. Uspjeli smo stabilizirati momčad i sada su počeli stizati dobri rezultati', rekao je.
Emery se uoči finala Europske lige nada da njegova momčad može krenuti putem jednog drugog engleskog kluba.

'Prije tri godine Liverpool je igrao finale Lige prvaka. A sada, tri godine kasnije, igraju finale Lige prvaka. Očito je moguće i to je naš cilj', poručio je Emery koji je ove sezone, svoje prve u Premierligi, s Arsenalom završio natjecanje na petom mjestu tablice, tako da im je jedina šansa za plasman u Ligu prvaka osvajanje Europske lige.
