Unai Emery gives Arsenal right mix of freedom and discipline, says Mustafi – video

Shkodran Mustafi believes Unai Emery has found the right balance between freedom and discipline on the pitch since taking over at Arsenal.

The Gunners play Sporting Lisbon on Thursday night, looking to extend their unbeaten run to 15 matches and knowing that they will progress to the knockout rounds of the Europa League if they better the result of their Group E rivals ,Vorskla Poltava.

Mustafi, who has yet to feature in the Europa League so far this season, has been impressed with what Emery has changed since being appointed as Arsenal’s head coach in May.

‘For me personally, the biggest thing was that he’s someone who really knows what he wants from each player,’ the Germany international said when asked what Emery has added since replacing Arsène Wenger.
