Unai Emery has said he wants to ‘write a new history’ at Arsenal, by starting to get results against their top six rivals.
The Gunners generally have a god awful record against the other members of the top six, picking up just six points from a possible 30 against the Premier League‘s biggest clubs.
This season, that record already reads zero from six, having lost the opening two games of the season to Man City and Chelsea respectively.
With Arsenal having gone on an eight-game unbeaten run in the league, Saturday’s clash against Jurgen Klopp’s high flying Liverpool side will prove to be a good yardstick to see how far the Gunners have progressed, and manager Unai Emery is hoping to get a positive result in order to start writing a new chapter in the clubs book of fortunes.
“We want to write a new history. The new history is in the present and also, with our players, our quality and our capacity, I believe in my players and this project,” The former PSG coach told his Friday press conference.
“We are starting this project with a very positive way with what we are doing. We are in our mentality that we also need to improve thing but each match they are giving us a lot of information for improvement and development and I trust in my players.”
