The former PSG boss touched on off-the-pitch “circumstances” that haven’t helped his side’s performances so far this season.
Emery responded with “Yes” when he was asked if he believes that the club are behind him given the side’s lacklustre performances lately.
Today’s clash gave Arsenal the opportunity to get their season back on track after a tricky two months.
Brendan Rodgers’ high-flying Leicester ultimately proved to be too difficult a task and the Gunners look like they’ll have to settle for a top six finish once again.
