Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has revealed he will be fully behind AFC Bournemouth when they host Manchester City in a decisive Premier League encounter on Tuesday night.
Speaking after Arsenal’s narrow 1–0 victory over Burnley, a result that has put the Gunners on the brink of securing the league title, Arteta admitted he would be passionately supporting Bournemouth as the title race reaches a critical stage.
Arsenal can be crowned champions if Manchester City fail to secure a win at the Vitality Stadium, where Bournemouth currently enjoying a strong unbeaten run will be looking to upset the reigning champions.
