There has been much debate about what has changed at Arsenal under Unai Emery, but the new man echoed predecessor Arsene Wenger by answering a reporter s phone on Friday.
Wenger jokingly picked up a call during a post-match news conference after a big win over Chelsea in 2016 and this time it was Emery s turn to amuse the assembled media.
In between answering questions on Mesut Ozil s fitness and his ban of fruit juice at the training ground, Emery was interrupted by a phone call.
A mischievous grin stretching across his face, the Arsenal boss answered the phone sat in front of him that had been used as a dictaphone by one of the reporters present.
Okay, good morning or good afternoon, Emery greeted the person on the other end of the line. Hi, I am Unai Emery. How are you? Yeah, we are working.
Good afternoon! Hi, I am Unai Emery. How are you? We are working.
Rule 1: Always put your phone on airplane mode during press conferences
