Six points is the minimum we expected at this stage and we've struggled to get them.
The defence continues to underwhelm. Emery bought two defensive midfielders, a keeper, a centre-back and a right-back. He's barely using most of them. You cannot have a £20 million keeper who is a dud so at some point he's got to put his mouth where his money was.
Same with Torreira. No excuse for not starting him anymore in my view.
Final point. All this talk about he hasn't got the players to play his system. That's all very well and he can't be blamed for inheriting what he's inherited. But at some point he either gets the players he wants or he uses the players they have to the best of their abilities. To do otherwise is dumb.
