Im going to protect every player because they worked and tried to do their best possible, he told talkSPORT.I think we can speak about them all generally and not focus on individual issues.The Arsenal boss admitted his team missed a big opportunity to climb into third and seize control of the top four on an Easter weekend which also saw Tottenham and Manchester United slip up. However, he remains positive about their chances of qualifying for next seasons Champions League.Its a big frustration but we have more reason to be proud of the team, Emery added.It gives us less opportunity to be in the top four but it continues to be in our hands. We have the advantage in the table.We won a lot of opportunities before. Today we lost this opportunity but we need to keep the same motivation and be positive.
