The pair played together at Paris St Germain and will on Saturday face off for the first time as opposing managers.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta hailed Mauricio Pochettino as a “big brother” and believes he is already turning things around at Chelsea.
Rangers’ Claudio Caniggia holds off PSG’s Mikel Arteta during the UEFA Cup, third round, first leg game between Rangers and Paris Saint Germain at Ibrox Stadium, Glasgow, Scotland. “He was critical, has been one of the most influential people in my career. Firstly as a player, he took me under the arm and looked after me like a little child, a little brother, and he was a big part of the success I had in Paris.
Arteta has been in charge of Arsenal since December 2019, just a month after Pochettino was sacked as head coach at north London rivals Tottenham. “I think they deserve much more than what they’ve got in the table. What Mauricio has done in a short time is phenomenal. We’ll be have to be at our best.”
