Ederson shows off 'funny messages' he received from Arsenal fans before Man City's win over Tottenham after phone number leaked

Before <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-city-player-ratings-vs-tottenham-stefan-ortega-erling-haaland/blt2314cde390f36cd8" target="_blank">City beat Tottenham 2-0</a> to leapfrog them above Premier League leaders Arsenal, goalkeeper Ederson had his number leaked, prompting a host of Gunners fans to text the Brazilian. However, Pep Guardiola's men had the last laugh as they won at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Tuesday.

WHAT HAPPENED?

He posted in an Instagram story a number of texts he appeared to receive from Arsenal fans, and wrote: "My number was leaked and I had some funny messages."One user wrote: "Hello you beautiful Brazilian god, how much for a good night tonight?"Another text read: "Don't let in any howlers tonight you sh*tttteerrrr Up the Arsenal."<picture><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blteee1af5310281d81/442992485_969859738104127_951912813597199619_n.jpg?format=webp" type="image/webp"><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blteee1af5310281d81/442992485_969859738104127_951912813597199619_n.jpg?format=jpg" type="image/jpeg"><img src="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/blteee1af5310281d81/442992485_969859738104127_951912813597199619_n.jpg?format=jpg" alt="Ederson messages" data-source="Instagram" data-copyright="Instagram" data-portal-copyright="Instagram" perform:prop="uuid:blteee1af5310281d81;width:480;height:853"></picture>

WHAT EDERSON SAID

City's victory in north London put them in pole position to win the league for a fourth-straight season. They sit two points ahead of Mikel Arteta's side with just one match of the campaign remaining. And Ederson has played a big part in that effort, although his substitute on Tuesday night, Stefan Ortega, was superb in keeping a clean sheet for City.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

City round off the league season with a home clash against West Ham, in David Moyes' last game in charge of the Hammers, whereas Arsenal host Everton on Sunday afternoon. Victory for Guardiola's men will secure them the title.
