Prior view of Arsenal in Tottenham
One of the oldest and most fierce rivalries of English football will take place in the Far East tomorrow while Arsenal and Tottenham are found in Hong Kong.
It can only be a friendly pre -season, but none of the parties will want to lose before its neighbor of northern London and should be an intense occasion in the Kai Tak Stadium.
Those prior to the party have fluid in both directions with the new Chief of the Spurs, Thomas Frank, describing Arsenal as “one of the best teams in the world.”
The Danish added: “That way, it will be a great test, but it is more than a test against Arsenal, it is not only friendly. Of course, it is a game that we will do everything we can to win.”
Frank has not had much time to implement his ideas after succeeding Postecoglou in the Spurs, but the Arsenal Chief, Mikel Arteta, is intrigued to see how he will go to the former Brentford manager.
He said: “I respect Thomas Frank immensely. And with him and Spurs I think we will begin to see the address he will take with the team, implementing his vision, his philosophy and, of course, we must focus on what we want to do, what we want to achieve, and I am sure it will be a great game.”
Arsenal has won its two pre -season games in the Far East, against AC Milan and Newcastle, and Arteta is excited to face the Spurs in a foreign soil.
He added: “(I think) that it is a great idea to bring the tradition of football, a rivalry, but at the same time doing it in a completely different country. I think it is brilliant.
“I think it is an opportunity for everyone to feel that and for us also because for our preparation the level of competition increases again and it is a different challenge for the game and they will be very lucky to play in this incredible stadium with 50,000 people that I am sure that they will be very strong and passionate.”
