Cazorla and Pires apologise for holding offensive anti-Spurs sign

Arsenal midfielder Santi Cazorla has apologised after being photographed holding a placard that used foul language to insult rivals Tottenham.

He and an unidentified woman held up the paper note to camera that read: “What do we think of Tottenham? S***. And what do we think s***? Tottenham”

Cazorla said he was unaware of what was written.

The Spaniard wrote on Twitter: “Our apoligizes to the Totenham fans, we couldn’t see the paper. #alwaysfootballalwaysrespect”

Cazorla signed the brief note on his behalf and on the behalf of Robert Pires, the former Arsenal winger, who also appeared in the photo.

Stick to the Munster signs, eh Santi?
