Tottenham ace Lucas Moura: We can beat Arsenal (after 9 years)

Tottenham ace Lucas Moura is adamant they will beat Arsenal this weekend.

Moura insists Tottenham are stronger than ever this season and will prove it by winning at rivals Arsenal in the league for the first time since 2010 on Sunday.

He told the London Evening Standard: “Is this the perfect game for us to have after the Newcastle defeat? Yes. We need to look forward now. There are a lot of hard games to come.

“We lost against Newcastle but I am sure we have the quality to go to Arsenal and come back with three points. That's what we must try to do.

“Each game is different. This is a new season and we have new players. I think we are stronger now (than in previous years). I am sure we can go anywhere and win games.

“For sure it was a very bad result against Newcastle. We tried but it was very difficult to play against them, especially as they kept everyone behind the ball after they scored.

"It was difficult to find the space in the air and the ground because everyone was in the box. I missed a very clear opportunity and I am upset about this. We need to get back to work this week and win the next game against Arsenal."
