Mourinho takes sly dig at Arsenal ahead of Derby

Jose Mourinho has launched a war of words before the North London rivalry.

Tottenham take on Arsenal this weekend on Sunday with both teams out of the top 4.

The match will be a blockbuster nonetheless given the rivalry between the two clubs.

Jose has played up the ante by taking a dig at Arsenal and their current position in the league table.

‘I look up, I don’t look down,’ said Mourinho via Mail Sport.

‘If Arsenal was seven points ahead of us, I would look to them but because we have seven points more than them, I don’t look down.

‘We always look to the next game and if it was Aston Villa or Newcastle next it would be exactly the same feeling.

‘We feel we are better than the position we have in the table and we want to improve our position so we need points for that.

‘It doesn’t matter the opponent. It doesn’t matter if it is a London derby.

‘The fact is it is the fourth in a row in the Premier League, it’s a Premier League match, three points are there to fight for and that’s what we’re going to try to do.’
