Former Arsenal defender Lauren reacts to Emery sack

Former Arsenal defender Lauren described Unai Emery's sacking as unfortunate and has wished him the best for the future.

Emery was relieved of his duties at the Emirates Stadium on Friday due to the Gunners’ recent poor run of results across all competitions.

A 2-1 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt in the Uefa Champions League stretched the Gunners’ winning drought to seven games across all competitions – losing two and drawing five.

In his reaction to Emery's departure, Lauren, who was part of the 'Invincibles', appreciated the 48-year-old for his efforts at the club after succeeding Arsene Wenger in May 2018.
