Tottenham captain Hugo Lloris says they must use Saturday's 3-1 defeat to Arsenal as motivation.

Tottenham boss Antonio Conte suffered his first defeat in the Premier League this season at the Emirates and they have not won a league game at their bitter rivals in 12 years.

But Lloris says they must use the setback as a motivational force ahead of their Champions League trip to Eintracht Frankfurt before facing Brighton next weekend.

Spurs captain Lloris said: “The taste of the defeat is something we don't want to feel again. Every defeat is painful and if we want to continue to grow as a team then we have to take this feeling and change it as possible. As soon as you lose one game, you have to bounce back as a team and make a run of good results to change this feeling.

“We have to be focused to the next game which is huge to the Champions League qualification to the next round to the knock-out stage and then Brighton.

“We have to respond in the best way because the best answer we can give is to win the next few games. But even when we were getting good results we were the first to say, as players and manager, that there was a gap to improve and we are still looking for improvements.

“This season is very long, it's a marathon and when you face an opponent like Arsenal then it's important if you can't win then you must not lose the game and unfortunately we couldn't do that.

“But there's still plenty of games ahead of us, it's always disappointing for the players, for the fans obviously, because these games mean a lot. But now we must respond by putting a lot of energy and focus and we must get a good run of good results."
