Poch: I've got to prove in the Prem same goes for Unai

CASE DISMISSED

MAURICIO POCHETTINO insists he and Unai Emery have NOTHING to prove in the Premier League.

The two men were sacked within just a few weeks of one another in 2019, by Tottenham and Arsenal respectively, after differing degrees of success.

Pochettino had reinvigorated Spurs and, with a focus on young talent playing an attractive brand of football, got them to a Champions League Final just months before he was axed.

Ultimately, he left with no silverware to show for his five years in charge, and the question his detractors now ask is when, or if, he will win something in England with Chelsea.

Emery, admittedly after a much shorter time, had failed to breathe new life into the Gunners after Arsene Wenger's two-decade-plus reign came to an end. He left the Emirates empty-handed despite guiding Arsenal to the Europa League Final in 2019.
