More than 80 per cent of respondents reckon up front is where Unai Emery’s team most need to improve in the transfer window, with the same number believing at least four new signings are needed.

It follows the remarkable turnaround engineered by Emery following his appointment last November and the Spaniard, unsurprisingly, has the overwhelming backing of supporters with 94 per cent of those who took part in our survey happy with the job he has done.
