Unai Emery will see Arsenal once again, but this time it will be as an opposition manager. Emery’s Villareal will meet his former side at the Estadio de la Ceramica on 30th April 2021 for the Europa League Semi-Final.
Unai Emery faces Arsenal after a year gap, during which he took over at Villareal and helped them move up a few spots on the La Liga table.
Emery has done his best to prove to his critics that his time at Arsenal does not signal the end of his career. But rather the calm before the storm and he will prove them wrong once again if he beats Arsenal.
On the other hand Arsenal fans and English supporters have started mocking the Spanish manager. They reminded Unai Emery of his catchphrase “Good Ebening”.
"Unai, good evening, it's not been a good evening though for you and Arsenal again."
Unai Emery says he understands the supporters expressing their dissatisfaction following his side's 2-2 draw at home to Southampton.

The Spaniard has a hard time pronouncing his ‘v’s’ that they tend to sound like a ‘b’ to those who hear it. This linguistic differentiation is quite common among people from Spain.
This would especially be the case for those who do not have a command over the English language. Unfortunately for Unai Emery his skills as a manager could have used a bit of refinement as well when he managed Arsenal.

The Spanaird cannot be handed the entire blame. He had to make due with an Arsenal side who needed time to develop under him. But, due to the constant pressures from the fans Emery never received the help that he needed.
Week in and Week out the Spaniard struggled to win games for the North London side. Soon they cut ties with him and brought in Mikel Arteta from Manchester City.
The move allowed Emery to rediscover himself and therefore the Yellow Submarines are his last chance at retribution over Arsenal.
