Will it happen?

Will Pochettino actually join Arsenal?

Well the likelyhood of the former Tottenham Hotspur coach stumbling across town to join the local arch rivals is low. Specially after Pochettino had said. 

I don’t think I need to speak too much. It’s like if one day [the Tottenham chairman] Daniel Levy sacked me – in a few years it would be impossible for me to manage Arsenal. In football I know it is so difficult to keep your values and to be loyal – with your heart and emotion. But for me before being a manager, before being a player, being loyal is more important. I am an Espanyol fan. I love Espanyol. It’s like Tottenham for me now. It will be impossible, one day, to move to Arsenal. It will be impossible.”

However, Tottenham have indeed sacked him now. He is troubled. He needs a job. As for Arsenal, they are even more troubled. They need a boss. Pochettino is available.

It is these circumstances that Gary Linekar has joked about it. 

He has asked the Gunners to come and take away their rival’s former boss. Will it actually happen though?
