Arsenal skipper Mikel Arteta is a big fan of Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino. Pochettino is now in talks with Arsenal's local rivals Tottenham.
Arteta told arsenal.com: "He was my captain at PSG and I always knew he would become a manager. He has taken a lot of influence from Marcelo Bielsa, who was his coach with Argentina; they used to talk about things a lot, and now you can see that his teams are really aggressive, both when attacking and defending.
"He takes a lot of risks, the players enjoy playing for him, his decisions are always sound and he's got a good personality. I've admired Pochettino ever since I was young; he really looked after me when I was at PSG as well."
