Arsenal boss Emery admits PSG match will be 'different'

Arsenal manager Unai Emery isn't fazed about facing his former employers on Saturday.

The Gunners will line-up against PSG in a friendly in Singapore. Emery spent two seasons with the Parisians, winning the Ligue 1 title last season, before joining Arsenal this summer.

Emery said: "In my career I have worked at different clubs and I am playing against a former club, and for me it is a match that is a little different but I am thinking only of our preparation.

On facing Atleti and PSG, Emery added: "Each match is different, with Atletico Madrid and PSG the level is bigger [than against Boreham Wood] and it is clear these two clubs don't have at the moment every player who was at the World Cup.

"But the level is still big and we play with our capacity today, but we are still waiting on some players who played in the World Cup too.

"But I am very happy with the work every day and with the performance of the players and tomorrow we are going to prepare to play against Atletico. We are three weeks into our work."
