00:01It's North London Derby Day. Arsenal take on Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League,
00:07a game that is the most watched London derby and this year may be the most anticipated.
00:14Arsenal dropped points away to bottom of the league Wolves last time out and the narrative
00:18is growing around the Gunners ability to see out a Premier League campaign.
00:23So is the pressure getting too much? Well, there is no greater test of mettle than playing
00:28arch-rivals Tottenham Hotspur and here's what Arsenal manager Mikhail Arteta said ahead of the game.
00:36What I've seen is a tremendous reaction again and I'm not surprised at all. I mean when you lose points
00:43obviously in the last kick of the game again in a very unpredictable manner I would say because to
00:49predict somebody with a 0.2 spectacle probably and one shot to concede an equaliser the manner that we
00:56did it is nobody can really understand that but this is football and that's the beauty of it
01:03and that was a chapter so we have a long season chapter 27 says okay we draw against Wolves in
01:09this
01:09manner what I'm very interested is about the next one is what we are made of okay what do we
01:15do about
01:15this and how we write our own destiny from here and going forward and and that's it and you have
01:21to
01:21react to that because life moves on the result has to stay unfortunate as it was there is nothing that
01:28we can do what we can do is a lot is what's going to happen next. Tottenham Hotspur have had
01:33two weeks
01:33on the training ground with their new manager Igor Tudor. Tudor has signed a contract to manage Spurs
01:39until the rest of the season following on from Thomas Frank sacking and has had time to prepare for the
01:46North London derby so will Spurs take pride in trying to stop Arsenal from winning their first title
01:52in 22 years here's what the new Spurs boss had to say. No I didn't enjoy because I'm here not
01:59to enjoy
01:59I'm here to work so enjoying is it's just a first moment after there's a work to do you know
02:09nice privilege to be here as I said before to this fantastic club also very focused very concentrate to
02:18to do right things that this club need this team need these fans need so I'm focused on that I'm
02:29not
02:29thinking too much too much about what you asked me to enjoy. Of course I understand the importance of
02:36this game this is a derby you know North London derby everybody expecting all the points the three
02:44points from us and we are aware of this but what is what was my goal in this first sessions
02:52we made
02:53is that we became a team to suffer when it is to suffer to fight to run to have a
02:57right mentality
