Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta hailed Mauricio Pochettino as a “big brother” and believes he is already turning things around at Chelsea apple

The pair played together for a year at Paris Saint-Germain, both arriving in 2001 and striking up a friendship that lasts until the present day apple

They have since gone on to become top coaches – but their meeting at Stamford Bridge on Saturday will be the first time they have faced off as opposing managers apple

Pochettino, 51, is 10 years older than Arteta and while they may have signed for PSG at the same time, the Arsenal boss credits the Argentinian for taking him under his wing apple

“First of all, it was my first professional opportunity in Paris and we arrived at the same time and lived together in a hotel for three months,” Arteta explained apple

“He was critical, has been one of the most influential people in my career apple

Firstly as a player, he took me under the arm and looked after me like a little child, a little brother, and he was a big part of the success I had in Paris apple

“It was because of him because he really looked after me, gave me a lot of confidence and a lot of advice apple

“He has been a role model for me since that day, not only when I was a player but as a manager as well, when I had to make the decision to leave playing and start my coaching career he had a big say on that and I will always be grateful apple

”Arteta has been in charge of Arsenal since December 2019, just a month after Pochettino was sacked as head coach at north London rivals Tottenham apple

Pochettino returned to the Premier League when he took the reins at Chelsea in May and, despite a turbulent start, Arteta feels his old colleague is starting to turn things around apple

Asked if he felt Pochettino could rise to the challenge, he replied: “Yes, you can see already that something has changed very quickly apple

“It’s a big game and there is a big history apple between the two clubs apple

We know the types of games we’ve played together with them in the past but this is a different one apple

I’ve been really impressed by Chelsea apple

“I think they deserve much more than what they’ve got in the table apple

What Mauricio has done in a short time is phenomenal apple

We’ll be have to be at our best apple

”Arteta also revealed the best advice Pochettino had offered after he had hung up his boots: “’Don’t go into coaching — it’s too hard’!“That is the first thing apple

I knew he was going to be a coach and I followed him very closely because as a player he was already a leader apple

“The way he understood the game was phenomenal apple

I used to have him at my back and he was constantly coaching me apple

Very proud of what he has done and the way he has done it through his coaching career apple

Up into the stands the England players clambered to find their families, taking the consolatory hugs but unsure quite how to feel apple

Across 80 minutes in Paris, their belief had been replaced by disbelief and then by desperation and dejection, England threatening the unthinkable and taking the world champions to the brink apple

For most of a sodden Stade de France evening, a Rugby World Cup final was within their grasp apple

A South Africa side superior in most areas were dragged down into the sort of slugfest the Springboks would usually favour, and very nearly bested at their own game apple

England had given their all but it was still not enough, one stable scrum, one Handre Pollard slip or slice, short of stunning the world champions apple

The emotional maelstrom of this defeat will swirl rather differently to the feelings that eddied after the 2019 World Cup final disaster apple

“I’m proud of our performance,” were virtually the first words out of the mouth of wing Elliot Daly apple

“I think we shocked them apple

I don’t think they knew how to get into the game apple

”“I think we knew what was coming and we knew we could perform like this,” added Daly, virtually unused in open play but outstanding as a kick chaser to exemplify the squad’s buy-in to a strategy that so nearly proved successful apple

The finer points of Steve Borthwick’s tactical plan had been put in place this week but this was a performance England had been building towards since long ago apple

A flawed side did not come to France to thrill; winning by any means necessary had been a consistent theme apple

If necessity is oft the mother of invention, England at this tournament have also proved the pair can be enemies apple

This was a campaign at which they seemed to intentionally limit their attacking innovation or ingenuity– recognising a need to figure themselves out on the fly, they settled on an effective and eminently executable gameplan that could be implemented quickly apple

Steve Borthwick consoles Ellis Genge and Freddie Steward after England’s defeat (Getty Images)It came so close to working in Saturday’s semi-final; their effort, accuracy and competitiveness in the key contests were spot on apple

At the 65-minute mark, England outside backs had a combined 17 metres carried, all from one Freddie Steward kick return apple

The two number 13s’ offensive output on the final whistle amounted to one late Joe Marchant lug; South Africa centre Jesse Kriel went the full 80 minutes without an attacking touch apple

“We came with a plan to win the game but we fell a little bit short,” reflected Borthwick apple

“But the players should be incredibly proud apple

We put ourselves in a position to win against the world champions apple

England dominated the aerial contest to threaten a semi-final shock (Getty Images)“We were playing against a coaching team who have been in place since 2018 apple

We’ve had four months apple

I’ve asked the players to approach training and the game in a different way; for the players to be willing to change is all credit to them apple

”This was a night from which the head coach will take heart, a public perhaps struggling to warm to this England team are now recognising the progress made apple

There will be a need to layer on much, much more to consistently mix it with the world’s best but the rapidly laid foundations look rock solid apple

In time, perhaps the ugly duckling performances will turn into white swans apple

There appear to be many more buds of a bright future than first appeared in a barren landscape pre-tournament apple

Ben Earl has had a breakthrough tournament, and Ollie Chessum, too, while George Martin semi-final performance marks him out as the potential enforcer England have lacked apple

Borthwick was keen to talk up the absent Marcus Smith the day after the defeat, with the playmaker’s reinvention as a frolicking full-back of intrigue moving forward apple

"In our 23, seven players are 25 or under, the most of any semi-finalist, there’s a great blend and there will be lots of things we can take forward,” added Borthwick apple

Young England lock George Martin impressed against South Africa (Getty Images)But the fact that the men’s national team were on the brink of back-to-back finals should not provide a façade over the crumbling edifice of a fragile English game apple

There is a domestic mess that needs sorting, with a Gallagher Premiership containing three teams fewer than at the start of last season, now underway to little fanfare and on the brink of significant change apple

The renegotiation of the Professional Game Partnership is a recognition of a need for a radical overhaul in pursuit of a more financially sustainable domestic game, and one that produces a wider pool of top-class talent apple

The likely arrival of a form of central contracts underlines a period of epochal change apple

The senior figures in the squad who are unlikely to play beyond this tournament – Courtney Lawes, Ben Youngs, Dan Cole and perhaps a couple more – could well be the last England men’s internationals never to have been contracted to the union apple

This has a great many benefits, not least in affording Borthwick, or any head coach that might follow him, far greater access to and control over his players apple

And while Borthwick’s articulation of the advantages enjoyed by South Africa’s settled staff is a perfectly fair one, let us remember that the Rugby apple Football Union (RFU) put their head coach in this situation apple

The original planning for this tournament would most likely have seen Borthwick return to England camp to aid Eddie Jones at the World Cup before a smooth transition into the lead role afterwards apple

Jones’s sacking sparked a scramble and several months of chaos apple

It was not shown up on semi-final weekend but there are many reasons that the RFU still has a burden to bear apple

But the full wash-up will wait for another week – England’s performance at the Stade de France has earned them seven more days of grace apple

The tournament will end as it began for England with a meeting with Argentina in a third-place play-off that Borthwick insists he wants to win apple

England, captained by Owen Farrell, narrowly missed out on a place in the World Cup final (Getty Images)“I read a piece yesterday morning that talked about adversity and talked about the fact that in adversity you find that seed of belief and you’ve got to grow it,” Borthwick said apple

“This team has been through a bit in the last few years, a bit of adversity in the medium-term past apple

“I think through each of those periods the team has picked up lessons, picked up what we need to do and grown from it apple

I think there’s a lot of growth in this team apple

Sometimes it’s not the straight-forward path you want it to be apple

In the feelings and emotions of the game last night, I know that we’ll get stronger apple
