Jurgen Klopp praises Arsenal after win over Tottenham

Klopp has now come out to sing Arsenal's praises after their fine run of results, with the German admitting Arteta's men have been impressive.

"I know then Arsenal is coming, and we saw glimpses of their game against Tottenham," Klopp said via Metro UK.
‘They are outstanding in the moment so that is obviously not an easy game. But we will give it a proper try," he added.

Conte blames VAR for North London Derby defeat

Earlier, Sports Brief reported Tottenham boss Antonio Conte was thoroughly critical of the VAR process, as his side fell to a crushing 3-1 defeat against Arsenal in the North London derby.

Things went from bad to worse for the visitors midway through the second half whilst trailing 2-1, when Emerson Royal was sent off for a challenge on Gabriel Martinelli.

Referee Anthony Taylor deemed the challenge dangerous and brandished a red card, much to the bemusement of Antonio Conte and Tottenham players.
