"Suarez, who I know, has this quality."Asked whether the 25-year-old Spaniard would handle the physicality of the Premier League, Emery replied: "I don't know now."It's a challenge for him, and also [it is a challenge for him] to help us." With just two days remaining before the close of the transfer window, Emery was coy on potential arrivals despite Arsenal being linked with Inter's Ivan Perisic.He said: "If a player can come here to help us, he will come. The last news, I don't know. My focus is on the match. Maybe tonight or tomorrow [Wednesday] I will speak." Looking ahead to Sunday's trip to face Premier League champions City at the Etihad Stadium, and whether or not any of his injured players would be likely to return, Emery said: "I don't know now. We need to know tomorrow in training."I hope some players can be with us. Ainsley [Maitland-Niles], I hope." Meanwhile, Emery's opposite number Neil Warnock expressed his disappointment with the display of Cardiff centre-back Bruno Ecuele Manga, who, after being fortunate not to concede a penalty in the first half, failed to learn his lesson and tripped Sead Kolasinac in the box. Aubameyang opened the scoring from the resulting spot-kick and Arsenal rarely looked like dropping points from there."They should've had a penalty in the first half and I spoke to Bruno [at half-time], so for him to dive in like that again, I'm just really disappointed," said Warnock."The players have to think about their responsibility, it was just amateur."</blockquote>
