Leandro Trossard says if he wants Tottenham to go down or not
There simply cannot be an Arsenal fan out there who does not want to see Tottenham go down this season.
That, coupled with Arsenal’s own success, means it would be the perfect season.
However, for Trossard, it’s no the be-all and end-all.
Asked if he would prefer it if Tottenham went down, Trossard replied.
“Personally, no, not really.
Before not being able to resist a sly dig at Spurs’ record against the Gunners in recent times.
“It’s often three points for us.”
With Trossard such a key player for Arsenal and having a good track record against Spurs, one might expect him to have more of a feeling towards them.
The reality, though, is Arsenal are laser focused on their own work.
Seeing Spurs go down is just another note in a busy Premier League season and really, it’s a big fixture that the club is losing out on next season.
