What happened: Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola offered a public show of support for West Ham United following his team's recent victory. Guardiola crossed his arms in the iconic 'Irons' salute and shouted “COME ON YOU IRONS!” as he exited his press conference on Sunday.
Why it matters: The gesture underscores the intensity of the Premier League title race, where Arsenal currently lead City by two points. Guardiola is banking on West Ham, who are fighting to avoid relegation, to take points off the Gunners at the London Stadium to shift momentum back to Manchester.
By the numbers: Arsenal (76 pts) enter Sunday as against West Ham. Manchester City (74 pts) currently trail by two points with three matches remaining, while West Ham sit 18th in the table with 36 points.
What to watch: Arsenal face West Ham today at 11:30 AM ET in a pivotal London derby. Manchester City return to action against Crystal Palace on May 13.
