Unai Emery's spell at Arsenal has finally come to an end. After a poor start to the season, the Gunners decided to part their ways with the Spaniard on Friday. Emery joined the North London-based club in the start of the 2018-19 season and replaced Arsenal's legendary manager Arsene Wenger. Under Emery, Arsenal finished fifth in the 2018-19 season and reached the finals of the Europa Cup 2018-19 in which they faced a humiliating loss against Chelsea. Although the Spaniard signed crucial players like David Luis, Nicolas Pépé and Dani Ceballos, but even that failed to make much of an impact for the Gunners in the current season.

But now I'm hoping for the fanbase to be unified and fully behind the team, an ambitious appointment from the board and just better results on the pitch.
A pivotal moment for the club now. Let's not get this wrong.🚫#Emery https://t.co/fvXNXnR6Fs
