    Nicolas Pepe and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang have pace to burn and Alexandre Lacazette will be the foil through the middle. The Tottenham back line are in for a tough afternoon.

    Arsenal head coach Unai Emery: "Matches like last week against Liverpool, this week against Tottenham, they are the two teams who played the final of the Champions League. It's amazing and is the best test.

    "Every time is a good time to play against them with our supporters. Maybe this match on Sunday is the best match in the world [this weekend] for all football supporters."

    Mauricio Pochettino: Tottenham manager dispels quit rumours ahead of North London derby

    Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino said rumours he is set to quit are "stupid".

    The odds on him being the first Premier League manager to go this season were slashed during the week.

    "What can I say about stupid rumours?" the Argentine said.

    "After five years now I start my sixth season. You know how we worked this summer to rebuild and update because from each summer, version 2.0, 3.0 - now we're version 6.0 MP software.

    "Only social media can create something that stupid.

    "I will not walk away after Sunday's game. I will be working Monday and Tuesday and then going away for a few days and coming back to meet Daniel [Levy] and watch some internationals.

    "Do you bet? It's closed now! You lose your money!"

    Wolves head coach Nuno Espirito Santo speaking to Sky Sports: "It was a tough game. Everton are a good team, with good players and a good manager. Not so well played but we managed good things inside a tough cycle."

    On his team's defending:

    "Very bad. We made mistakes we usually don’t do. It’s part of the process. Now let’s have a break when the players go to the national teams and then we go again. It’s work, a lack of communication but it happens.

    "We should defend better and we must do that. We played on Thursday night which was a big high on emotions. We recovered and settled down but coming to Goodison Park is always tough. The Premier League has high standards."

    What has happened to Tottenham? They are there with four points but they were totally unconvincing against Newcastle.

    I thought Arsenal were naive against Liverpool and I am sorry but a defence with David Luiz in it isn't going to get you top three.

    Everton midfielder Fabian Delph speaking to Sky Sports:"I felt like we planned very well going into the game.

    "We knew what we needed to do and we delivered today. [Jordan] Pickford is the boss back there, and if we decide to play out it's his decision but we need to be smart.

    "There’s been five or six signings this summer to freshen up the team. It’s a great group and we all stick together.

    "The shirt is a different shade of blue but the guys have welcomed me. It’s a new challenge but I’m delighted to be here. I’m in there to do a job."

  9. 'More questions than answers'published at 16:01 British Summer Time 1 September 2019

    Arsenal v Spurs (16:30 BST)

    Jonathan Pearce
    BBC Match of the Day commentator

    The perfect red-hot game to bring the season to a boil for these two after lukewarm starts.

    If Arsenal risk playing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Alexandre Lacazette and Nicolas Pepe up front they could really threaten Tottenham's far from formidable defence. But that could leave them lacking numbers when Spurs counter and the Gunners defence lacked leadership and quality at Liverpool.

    Having been beaten by Palace in their last home London league derby, Arsenal could lose two on the bounce for the first time since 2006. Spurs are chasing back-to-back wins there for the first time since the 1920s.

    Pepe can certainly open his account. But take Harry Kane to equal the north London derby scoring record with his 10th goal in a draw that will leave more questions than answers.

    Wolves have gone on to be relegated the last four times they have failed to win any of their four opening top-flight games (1964-65, 1975-76, 1984-84 and 2003-04).

    There was no quarter given today. Every time any player lost the ball, their immediate reaction was to win it back. Both players played with the right attitude.

    As people were saying before the game, that's one where it felt like a win for either side made it a good start to the season. And a defeat made it a poor start.
