According to reports in the Star, Unai Emery is unhappy with the weight of some of his players in the Arsenal squad and believes they are ‘too fat’.

Arsenal have begun a new era under Emery. It’s the first time in 22 years the club have begun a Premier League campaign without Arsene Wenger at the helm.

Emery, who has enjoyed success at Sevilla and Paris Saint-Germain, has been tasked with the objective of returning Arsenal to the top of the Premier League pile.

But first, the north London outfit must get back into the Champions League – Emery’s first priority.

However, the suggestions are that the new Gunners boss is concerned about the fitness of his current squad.

Reports state the Spaniard has set his medical team a number of targets for the season, including to improve theĀ overall fitness of his squad – he wants an average of 1.3kg shed from his Arsenal stars.

The Gunners will need to be at their best if they’re to take all three points from Chelsea this Saturday.
