Unai Emery has said he believes he has the backing to undertake a long-term project at Arsenal, having succeeded Arsene Wenger in May.
The Spaniard's tenure at the Emirates Stadium started in impressive fashion as he masterminded a 22-match uneaten run in all competitions between August and December, while summer signings Lucas Torreira and Matteo Guendouzi looked to have breathed fresh life into the Arsenal midfield.
But now Emery is enduring his first low spell in north London, with the Gunners six points off the Premier League's top four after a run of just two wins in six in the English top flight.
