Tottenham's AVB looks forward to Arsenal derby

Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas feels Sunday's narrow 1-0 victory over Swansea City has given his side confidence ahead of next weekend's North London derby with Arsenal.

Roberto Soldado netted a 58th minute penalty as Spurs made it two wins to kick off the season which has them in good stead to make the short trip to the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.

"We are looking good. At the moment we have six points. Last year we had two from three games. Obviously we go to Arsenal and we hope to take this mentality forward," he said.

"It gives us a little bit of confidence heading into a difficult game against Arsenal next week. I'm very pleased."
