Team News
Arsenal
Tottenham
- Arsene Wenger confirmed that Lukas Podolski will be out for up to 10 weeks with the hamstring injury he sustained against Fenerbahce in midweek.
- Jack Wilshere and Aaron Ramsey both sustained knocks but are highly unlikely to miss the north London derby for minor injuries.
- Laurent Koscielny returns from suspension and will slot into central defence with Bacary Sagna moving over to right-back.
- Aaron Lennon is a doubt for Spurs after missing the win over Swansea last week, but Andros Townsend's impressive performance could mean he starts regardless of Lennon's fitness.
- Andre Villas-Boas has plenty of options in midfield and the absence of Gareth Bale as his move to Madrid looks to finally be going through.
- It will probably be the same three in the middle as last week - Paulinho, Capoue and Dembele - but Sandro, Sigurdsson and Holtby will also hope for some gametime.
- Erik Lamela and Vlad Chiriches were both signed in time to play on Sunday and could feature, but most likely from the bench at best.
The inclusion of Eriksen and Lamela would add provide much needed flair to the team which has been missing since Modric and Van der Vaart left. Dembele is nice to watch but have contributed very little since his arrival. Townsend is trying to be the next Bale just wanting to shoot and not passing the ball to others. Weakness at left back position exploited. Rose is poor positionaly and indecisive when he should come out to tackle and when to hold the line. Spurs is a team in progress and hats off to AVB for daring to make aggressive changes. If Spurs can improve in his 3 positions, they will have a very formidable team. Been a Spurs fan and always will be.
No action goals in 270 minutes. nice work, Mr. AVB... :)
coyg fuck haters
43% possession ... Arsenal structured these days to maximize the abilities of Walcott.

Sadly, the game was all good teams.
Look at the stats. When we are leading, we are playing like a weak side... at home. We are ridiculous.
Wow, Arsenal right now has no depth.

Draw or +1 for spurs!!!! C O Y S ~ !
Arsenal won't score. Their midfield will get dominated, plus their XI is far behind in quality compared to our's. 2-0 to us, 2-1, if they're lucky.
no podolski..ramsey injured...no koscienly...looking pretty good. Arsenal wont score. 2-0 spurs. Fact.
AFC 3-1 THFC. Arsenal look the better team this season. Spurs lack creativity as they've only score their goals from penalties. Liverpool fan here btw
this match is for yids COYS
not gonna happen
I hope Arsenal be winner.
