Emery and the rescue game against Real Madrid

Unai Emery`s video-analyzing sessions skewed even the most inconspicuous details of each episode and the most insignificant matches of Pari Saint-Germain. One of the players said that at some point in their exhibitions, the Spanish coach seemed to fall into a trance. If he explains a situation in a game of air, he makes it so convincing that he plays the jump against the projector and makes a head blow against an invisible ball.
Emery`s jumps during tactical encounters are the subject of surprised comments in the dressing room.  The former Parisian player Maxwell, who is now a liaison between footballers and managers, went to the mentor a few weeks ago to tell him to collect as much content as possible in the videos. The underlying reason was that people were bored with taking so much information, and that was dangerous.
Behind the scenes in Saint-Germain-en-Le made it clear that this demand was the result of Neymar`s insistence. The coach accepted things in a primitive manner and did not hesitate to step back. Since then, he has set up his long-lasting productions to short, and one of his assistants commented:`They can no longer be understood! .

At 46, Emery is an isolated man in Paris. He trusts his work ethic, his administrative obsession, and the full dedication of a dream that has overtaken him since the time he took Lorca in Segunda B in 2003:to lead a European grand, to train the best players and to get Champions League trophies. He fears this dream not to be taken away just when he has the perfect details of his designed machine in the 1-4-3-3 system and just when he starts to discover the solutions of the puzzles.
He needs more time and support, but he gets stuck in a situation he can not afford to suffer. In his endeavor, he claims his days are counted as early as December 5, when club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi convinced himself that Emery was not the right coach of the team. It was the eveni ng in which Bayern Munich would have PSI with 3:1 on the Allianz Arena. After the match, the boss was furious and ready to dismiss the mentor, and since then, mistrust has only grown. With the title in League 1 with 12 points at the top, in the Paris Club do not write off the option to split with the Spaniard in the fall of Real Madrid on the sixth round of the Champions League.

Al-Khelaifi was warned by his advisors to follow very briefly the last game via partners of football predictions in the group stage in Bavaria because he was the litmus for the team`s progress. In the absence of qualitative rivals in French football, the duel in Munich was the only one with a real competitor between August and February in the calendar. In the al-Kelafims, they excluded the first match with Bayern on Parc des Princes with a 3-0 win, as they thought the Bavarians were boycotting their t hen coach Carlo Ancelotti. The defeat in Munich deserved the president, who realized that there was no persistence in the team`s game. He was even more frustrated by the conversations with Emery to look for an improvement strategy.
A year ago, the Spanish specialist justified the dropping from Barcelona with Camp Nou`s (6:1) rebound with the lack of a real leader
