Arsenal boss Emery bemused by press questions: I am here because of this!

Arsenal boss Unai Emery has dismissed claims his passion on the touchline hurts his players.

Emery was asked about his behaviour by the press after victory at Huddersfield.

A bemused manager replied: "I am here.

"It is my personality, and if I am here it is because in my career I have progressed like that. If in one moment I think it is negative, I would not do it."

He also said, "My ambition is to want them to keep the mentality and don't concede the position to the opposition. But I know it's easier on the bench than on the pitch but today I think the players worked well."
