Arsenal boss Unai Emery has revealed he has been using popular TV series Peaky Blinders to help with his English.

The Spaniard took over the North London side after Arsene Wenger stepped down following 22-years at the club and he has spoken English in all of his press conferences so far.

However, Emery has unveiled that he likes to spend his down time watching the BBC crime-based drama, which also helps with his English.

"I don't know if it is an obsession," the former PSG gaffer said.

"In each profession, you need to feel passion for that in order to give it your best performance. Football is my passion.

"It's my work, but I don't think everyday what it is my work, it's my best hobby. I feel very big the passion. I am doing my work with my desire.

"I can stay with my family, with my son, with my friends. Now I am watching an English series to improve my English. Peaky Blinders. It is good but it difficult (to understand), from Birmingham. And it's very aggressive. But it's good, it's good."

Elsewhere, Arsenal are back in action this afternoon as they travel to Bournemouth to face Eddie Howe's Cherries.

Emery's men are evens to pick up all three points, while 5/2 says the hosts will win. A draw can be backed at 29/10.
