Robben: Signing Van der Vaart makes Tottenham superior to Arsenal

Arjen Robben is backing Rafael van der Vaart to have a huge impact with Tottenham.

Robben, a Dutch team-mate of Rafael van der Vaart, believes Spurs have bridged the gap between Arsenal with their signing of the midfielder from Real Madrid.

Bayern Munich star Robben said: "Before Rafa signed, I’d still have had Arsenal down as the stronger team - but now I don’t think there is anything between them.

"With Rafa on board, Spurs really do have one of the very best midfield players in the Premier League, maybe even the best."
