Pep Guardiola playfully urged West Ham to take points off Arsenal in the title race when the leaders play them on Sunday, saying: “Come on you Irons,” at the end of his press conference after Manchester City beat Brentford.
City’s 3-0 victory at the Etihad Stadium closed the gap to Mikel Arteta’s team to two points but Arsenal cannot be caught if they win their last three matches, starting at the London Stadium. Conscious of this, Guardiola crossed his arms to mimic the hammers on the West Ham badge and smiled as he said: “Come on you Irons.”
