Former Tottenham star Dimitar Berbatov had to apologize on air for his comments on Arsenal midfielder Matteo Guendouzi.
The French midfielder seems to be known for his hair this season and one brilliant moment came in the 2-2 draw against Manchester United when Marouane Fellaini tugged the player by his hair.
This was even more ridiculous, given that the Belgian had cut his own afro a few weeks back.
Berbatov was speaking after the 1-0 win for Arsenal over Huddersfield and was on Sky Sports Sunday morning show (h/t Express):
“He’s 19 but he’s playing like he’s been there forever.
“Sometimes I’m watching him like I want to be against him because “pissing off” with the confidence he has.”
Ben Shephard, the presenter, then apologized quickly by adding: “You can’t say that. We apologize.” The Tottenham star was quick to follow suit but he seems to like the Arsenal star’s combative nature.
That was on show when we lost to the Gunners 4-2 at the Emirates. Hopefully, the defeat acts as a catalyst for better things to come, and we are back in the race for the title, thanks to Chelsea’s win over Manchester City.
We are just six points behind leaders Liverpool and it will be interesting to see how we go about the Barcelona tie on Tuesday.
Spurs have to go all out to ensure qualification into the next round of the Champions League, else, we could be playing in the Europa League which will affect our schedule for the worse.
