Tottenham vs Arsenal is fast approaching
Tottenham were left licking their wounds after the defeat at St James’ Park, with the Lilywhites once again paying the price for some poor play at both ends of the pitch despite controlling large parts of the game.
Spurs fans will be wondering how their side has only picked up one point in their two away games so far, given the dominance they had at King Power Stadium and St James’ Park.
Ange Postecoglou acknowledged that poor finishing once again let Tottenham down on Sunday but insisted that their rewards will come if they keep producing the same standard of performance (The Standard).

Ian Wright backs Raheem Sterling to score
Spurs now have a chance to put things right and make a real statement when Arsenal visit the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in two weeks.
The Gunners themselves will be keen to get back to winning ways after their draw against Brighton on Saturday, with Bukayo Saka issuing a warning to Spurs after the 1-1 draw, insisting that he and his teammates will be ready to the derby (TNT Sports).
When asked about Saka’s comments, Wright has now told The Premier League’s YouTube channel: “I think Saka is excited about that because of the player that is coming. No, (I can’t stop smiling).
“Everything is falling into place because the first game he is able to play is against Tottenham. It’s just falling into place. He comes on against Tottenham, or whatever, and scores. He is an instant hero. Instant.”
Spurs Web Opinion
The pace of Sterling and Saka could be deadly on the counter-attack, given how high a line Tottenham play. We need Van de Ven back 100 per cent fit for the game, which looks likely at the moment despite the centre-back pulling out of the Netherlands squad.
