Rumors say Sarri to Chelsea, Ancelotti to Napoli. Gazzetta has Zenit on Sarri too
I used to organize tournaments for ESL Italy and referee Go4SC2s, WCSs, and IEMs for ESL SC2.

Argentina's attack is looking formiddable. Icardi didn't even fit in because they've got Messi, Higuain, Aguero and Dybala. Midfield and defense aren't looking as strong though.

Argentina attack always look formidable, if you saw the qualifiers you will realise how disjointed it is. Messi + 10.

It is sad when your only good non offensive player is Mascherano with 33 years.

No Icardi is a bit strange for me. He scored a lot of goals.

Seems like a good choice although the PSG accolades don't really count

He was good at Sevilla. Maybe that's what Arsenal need to transition back to top 4 contender or EL winner. Once the UCL football is back on the menu, it's much easier to reinforce the team with additional top tier signings.

There aren't exactly many top tier quality managers out there to cherry pick from anyway so i guess it's good news overall. The way Arsenal has been and will be spending, it's unlikely that winning EPL is on top of their priority. Consistent top 4 finish along with good runs to CL QF and as well as winning Europa League, making Champions League SF/GF every now and then should be good results. For that i thank Emery is the right man for the job, especially after his cup runs with Sevilla.

Is Emery defensively solid though? That's Arsenal's biggest problem

On a quick look, he seemed to have quite high goals for and goals against numbers in Sevilla. Purely based on that I'd guess he's more of an attacking focused manager.

I guess the optimistic note would be that he's a continuation to the positive football that Arsenal plays at their best.

Icardi is banned for life from the Argentinian team for stealing Maxi Lopez's wife haha. Because of this, they get Higuain.

Emery at Arsenal is a good thing imo. He needs a club that can support his decisions, and he's definitely the kind to build something and stay long term. At PSG, he was never the #1 so his 'failures' in CL aren't totally his fault.

I was disappointed initially, because like Sharkie said Arsenal's biggest problem is their defense. But Emery is perhaps the best manager for Arsenal at the moment.
