Tottenham boss, Antonio Conte, has named Arsenal as a very good team and well organised ahead of the North London derby.
The Gunners tackle Spurs in the Premier League on Saturday and it would be a massive test for both sides, with Tottenham still unbeaten this season.
Spurs sit in third place on the table, one point behind leaders Arsenal, and travel to the Emirates this weekend.
During his press conference ahead of the game, the Italian was asked if it is important to try to leapfrog Arsenal to top spot in the table.
He said, “You know very well that this is the eighth game we are going to play, we have just started this league.
“For sure, Arsenal have had a fantastic start. They lost only one game against Manchester United. They are showing to be a really good team.
“I think in the summer they made good signings for them and improved a team that, don’t forget, they were four points up on us with three games left last season.
“It means that we are talking about a really good team, and last season we did a really good job to overcome them in the last three games.
“But at the same time I know the quality of this team. I know they are working with Mikel Arteta for many years. They are really well organised.
“I said last season, Arteta for me is a really good coach. He’s young but he can have in front of him a great career.
“We know that Arsenal are one of the six teams that try to take the best position in the Premier League.”
