A report claims that Unai Emery has confused his Arsenal players with some of his decisions in recent weeks.

Arsenal boss Unai Emery is confusing his players with his team selections and tactics, according to a report.

The Gunners are in the midst of a four-match losing run that has left their top-four hopes in tatters, requiring Chelsea to slip up over their remaining two matches.

Arsenal's disappointing run of form started with a 3-2 home loss at the hands of Crystal Palace, when Emery surprisingly fielded Mohamed Elneny alongside Matteo Guendouzi in midfield and Carl Jenkinson at right wing-back.

The Telegraph reports that those are just two of a number of decisions Arsenal's players have questioned, leaving the Spaniard facing a fight to prevent his first season in charge falling apart.

Gunners chiefs are said to be in the process of appointing a new director of football to help with player recruitment in the summer transfer window.
