Arsenal boss Emery urges fans to forget his touchline behaviour

Arsenal boss Unai Emery has urged fans to forget about his touchline behaviour.

Emery has recently become a social media sensation with fans, after the introduction of the "Unai Cam" on the official Arsenal site was launched during their opening day win at Newcastle.

Ahead of the visit of Tottenham , he said: “I'm not the protagonist, the players are the protagonists. The most important thing is the team.

“Maybe after the match there can be footage of me and other things for the supporters to look at.

"But the most important camera is always the one following my players on the pitch. I really, really want the focus of everyone to be on them until after the game."

Emery added: “Each match with Arsenal I'm feeling special and that means I can be as I am – with my personality, my character.

“But my responsibility is the team and to give them the best solutions. The more difficult work is for them.

“For the coach, it's about giving them energy and, above all, being intelligent in the management of the 90 minutes."
