Arsenal boss Emery: Strong selection will continue in Europe

Arsenal boss Unai Emery says he'll keep fielding strong teams in the Europa League.

Emery named a notably strong side for the win against Vorskla, starting Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and giving Mesut Ozil time off the bench, and has indicated he will not follow in his predecessor's footsteps by effectively running two separate teams for European and domestic competitions, as Arsene Wenger did for much of last season.

He said: “That's not my first idea. I want to find the best performance each match. Every competition for us is very important.

"We need 20-22 players to find the best performances and we are going to think of the best team for each game, doing the right mix to give the players minutes and confidence."
