Every word Unai Emery said on Arsenal's away form, Aubameyang's fitness and facing Leicester

On Arsenal's confidence

Good afternoon. Yes, the first idea is to recover our confidence. We can recover our confidence during each minute, each hour, each week through training and of course the [Leicester] match. We need to give a big performance and get the three points.

It's very important to be together and feel the connection with our supporters. Each match we are playing. Sunday is a good match to show our spirit and our wish to win the three points against Leicester.

Leicester's threat

Each team is different home and away. We respect them but we must fight. Individually the first target is to to be consistent defensively and offensively. Our preparation is important.

The latest on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's sinus issue?

He trained today. If he can train tomorrow we can think he is ready for Sunday.

Can he start?

If tomorrow he can train normally it is a possibility.

Why have your team lost form at such a critical stage of the season?

We lost the last match and the one before but our focus is on the present and Sunday. If we think negatively about the last two matches we can think positively about the matches we won against Watford and Napoli. Each match is a new test. We need to be positive and recover the confidence in our work. We will be ready and confident.

Worried about Arsenal's possible failure to qualify for the Champions League?

Each moment you can speak abut our focus. What's more important - and the only way - is to focus on the present and Sunday.

Is the away form concerning? Is it a problem with mentality?

I don't want to speak about the last matches we lost. I don't want to speak about the victory in Naoli and Watford. I only want to speak about the next match to give my players enough information to be ready to play.

But is it a concern?

How many times are you going to ask the same question? Maybe I need to change my words to say the same [thing]...

Facing Leicester under Brendan Rodgers

They changed the coach which not good news for coaches. Not changing a lot with the players ] but [they have] change[d] the system, and are doing something different in set pieces. They are in good confidence. They play with good combinations and have good players.
