Gomes: Spurs have won new respect from Arsenal

Tottenham's Brazilian goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes claims Arsenal have a new respect for Spurs following their strong start to the campaign.

The Gunners have had the upper hand throughout the Premier League era, but Spurs' excellent opening has given their players confidence that things may be about to change.

And ahead of Saturday's big derby, Gomes told the London Evening Standard: "I think we can finish above them this season. We know Arsenal are a great team, but confidence is high and we go there to win.

"We respect Arsenal, of course, but they respect us as well. That is very important."
