“No, of course, Tottenham have been great this season, so show the respect to them.”Freddie Ljungberg makes Tottenham admission after Arsenal
“Absolutely not. Tottenham have been absolutely sensational this season. You gotta give them some respect.”Spurs midfielder Freddie Ljungberg admits defeat to Arsenal
Including a flawless display in their rivals’ backyard, Arsenal won both matches against Tottenham Hotspur last season.
Despite Mikel Arteta leading his team to the Premier League title, they would later collapse, so it wasn’t enough.
After Monday night’s 6-0 victory over Sheffield United, Arsenal’s Freddie Ljungberg was questioned regarding his previous team’s title run-in, which encompasses a matchup with Tottenham.
According to Premier League Productions (04/03/24 at 11:15 pm), the Highbury hero said that going to Tottenham is always a matter of “go and win,” but he made sure to convey his “respect” towards Ange Postecoglou’s team.
Tottenham, he said, have been “great” this season under their new manager and are currently in contention for a Champions League spot.
Despite much praise for Arsenal’s expansive style of play, Spurs performed admirably to salvage a draw in the corresponding match.
You can bet that Arsenal’s trip to their rivals will likely be rescheduled due to TV scheduling, even though the current date is April 27.
The journey to Tottenham by Arsenal
According to Ljungberg, playing Tottenham away from home is never a “don’t lose, just go and win” situation for Arsenal as they approach the title run-in.
No doubt about it, Tottenham have been outstanding this year; treat them with the respect they deserve.
I would expect that both Tottenham and Arsenal will still be in the thick of things in the Premier League when that game rolls around, given the upcoming big few months.
Since a loss could end someone’s season, that will only serve to heighten the tension in the situation.
Arsenal, being in the hunt for bigger prizes, will likely be under more scrutiny, but let’s put that aside and focus on the bragging rights.
As the rematch demonstrated, the north London derby is consistently a thrilling spectacle.
You would think there will be goals galore again because both teams play top-tier attacking football in the league.
