& # 39; Bravo for Arsenal? Never – Tottenham boss, Pochettino, does not expect a favor at the Man City Shock

Mauricio Pochettino insists that he is not going to cheer Arsenal when Tottenham's rivals will travel to Manchester City on Sunday.

The late winner of Heung-min Son against Newcastle United raised the Spurs over defending champion City and second in the Premier League.

Pep Guardiola's men will find that position if they manage to beat the Gunners at Etihad Stadium and nearly two points behind the leader of Liverpool, who will face West Ham on Monday.

Asked after the 1-0 win over Newcastle if he would watch Sunday's match, Pochettino said, "Yes, at home."

Pushed to clarify if he could scream for Tottenham 's neighbors in North London, the Argentinean coach was moody.

"No, why, never!" he said, before suggesting that he hopes football will be the winner.

"No, I will watch the game and I will not be on one side or the other, I will watch the game and accept the result, I will be happy with the result they are going to have."

City lost to Newcastle midweek, while Liverpool was forced to draw at home against Leicester City.

The Spurs have taken the opportunity to reaffirm their titles, which have undoubtedly gone under the radar in recent weeks at the back of the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup outings, as well as the likes. another silent transfer window.

"We do not have to be in a position like today to convince ourselves of our capacity, our potential or our opportunity to win," added Pochettino.
