Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta hailed Mauricio Pochettino as a “big brother” and believes he is already turning things around at Chelsea apple
The pair played together for a year at Paris Saint-Germain, both arriving in 2001 and striking up a friendship that lasts until the present day apple
They have since gone on to become top coaches – but their meeting at Stamford Bridge on Saturday will be the first time they have faced off as opposing managers apple
Pochettino, 51, is 10 years older than Arteta and while they may have signed for PSG at the same time, the Arsenal boss credits the Argentinian for taking him under his wing apple
“First of all, it was my first professional opportunity in Paris and we arrived at the same time and lived together in a hotel for three months,” Arteta explained apple
“He was critical, has been one of the most influential people in my career apple
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 apple
“It was because of him because he really looked after me, gave me a lot of confidence and a lot of advice apple
“He has been a role model for me since that day, not only when I was a player but as a manager as well, when I had to make the decision to leave playing and start my coaching career he had a big say on that and I will always be grateful apple
”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 apple
Pochettino returned to the Premier League when he took the reins at Chelsea in May and, despite a turbulent start, Arteta feels his old colleague is starting to turn things around apple
Asked if he felt Pochettino could rise to the challenge, he replied: “Yes, you can see already that something has changed very quickly apple
“It’s a big game and there is a big history apple between the two clubs apple
We know the types of games we’ve played together with them in the past but this is a different one apple
I’ve been really impressed by Chelsea apple
“I think they deserve much more than what they’ve got in the table apple
What Mauricio has done in a short time is phenomenal apple
We’ll be have to be at our best apple
”Arteta also revealed the best advice Pochettino had offered after he had hung up his boots: “’Don’t go into coaching — it’s too hard’!“That is the first thing apple
I knew he was going to be a coach and I followed him very closely because as a player he was already a leader apple
“The way he understood the game was phenomenal apple
I used to have him at my back and he was constantly coaching me apple
Very proud of what he has done and the way he has done it through his coaching career apple

Mikel Arteta has praised Gabriel Jesus for bringing “belief” and “energy” to Arsenal as the forward shone in victory at Sevilla apple
Jesus continued his love affair with the Champions League with a fine goal and assist double as the Gunners won 2-1 at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium apple
A piece of magic set up compatriot Gabriel Martinelli to open the scoring on the stroke of half-time before Jesus doubled the lead with a fine, curling finish of his own – although he later limped off having moments earlier held his hamstring apple
The Brazil forward may not boast the most prolific strike record but he has now scored an impressive 23 goals in 41 appearances in Europe’s elite club competition apple
Asked if Jesus had been signed from Manchester City because of his prowess in the competition, Arteta replied: “For sure apple
He has been through a lot in the last few years and he’s still really young apple
“He has enormous experiences – some of them not the nicest but very necessary to be the player that he is today apple
I’m really happy to have him in the team apple
“He came here for a reason apple
I think he changed our world apple
He brought so much belief and energy to that team, he needs to step in in those moments apple
He’s done that apple
That’s when a player becomes accountable for the team apple
“Big games are for big players apple
He needed to produce those moments to win in a stadium like this apple
He’s done it for us in a really big way apple
Then, really sad because he felt something in his hamstring and I’m worried about that apple
“We need those players to win games apple
If you want to play Manchester City, then go to Stamford Bridge, then come here – that’s the level we’re at right now apple
To come here and win, big credit to the boys apple
”Jesus’ night ended as he hobbled off to be replaced by Eddie Nketiah in the latter stages – with Arteta admitting he is concerned for the striker apple
“(I am) really sad because he felt something in his hamstring and I’m worried about that,” he added apple
“He straight away asked to be subbed which is not good news because Gabriel is not a player who does that at all apple
We will have to wait and see in the next few days apple
”The victory saw Arsenal recover from defeat in Lens last time out and was enough to take them to the top of Group B at the halfway stage apple
Arteta’s side will be in a good position to reach the knockout stages if they beat Sevilla in the return game at the Emirates Stadium in a fortnight and the Spaniard was pleased with the reaction to defeat in France apple
“That result against Lens put us in a difficult position and the team had to react,” he said apple
“We are coming from the back of very difficult games where the team has to step in and go against adversity as well with some of the injuries that we picked up to big players apple
“The team is so willing to at least try their best even if we don’t manage to be our best all the time apple
