It's the biggest match in this round. Tottenham and Arsenal are on the rise at the same time, continuing their unbeaten run this season. First of all, Arsenal is trying to win the 'win' this season following last season. Arsenal, who won the opening match against Nottingham Forest, are in fourth place in the league, winning points against Crystal Palace, Fulham, Manchester United and Everton.
Tottenham is also tied with Arsenal on points. He got off to a disappointing start by drawing 2-2 in the opening game against Brentford, but won all four consecutive league matches. In particular, in the match against Burnley, he won a big 5-2 thanks to Son Heung-min's hat trick, showing a solid attack that does not feel the vacancy of "Ace" Harry Kane at all.
Ahead of the showdown, British media "90min" unveiled the best 11 mixed between Arsenal and Tottenham. The 4-3-3 formation listed five Tottenham players and six Arsenal players. Tottenham players included "Captain" Son Heung-min, as well as players from the captain's team, including James Medicine, Yves Bissouma, Destiny Udogi and Christian Romero. Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, Martin Odegaard, William Saliba, Ben White and David Raya were mentioned as Arsenal players.
It is different from the selection of Sky Sports. Only two Tottenham players were selected among the best 11 players in the "Sky Sports" mix. Son Heung-min and Medicine are the main characters. The remaining nine spots were filled by Arsenal players. They named Eddie Nketiah, Saka, Oedegaard, Rice, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Gabriel Magalyangis, Saliba, White and Aaron Ramsdale the best 11.
This means that Son Heung-min and Medicine's performance this season is great. Son Heung-min, who has to fill Kane's vacancy, is showing his temperament as a "playmaker" this season and is leading the team by maintaining a sharp "scoring ability." Medicine has completely filled Christian Eriksen's vacancy, which has not been found for a long time, and is playing a "center" of Tottenham's attack along with Son Heung-min.
