Unai Emery praised Arsenal's intensity after they leap-frogged Manchester United to move into the Premier League's top four with a 2-0 win over Southampton on Sunday. Emery's much-changed team were on cruise control at the Emirates Stadium thanks to early goals by Alexandre Lacazette and Henrikh Mkhitaryan. And now the Arsenal manager hopes his players can maintain that intensity as a congested fixture list forces him into further squad rotation.

Emery made five changes to the starting line-up that beat Bate Borisov 3-0 in the Europa League on Thursday and he expects to make more for Wednesday's home league game against Bournemouth.
