Former Arsenal star names just two Tottenham players in North London Derby combined XI

Arsenal Tottenham Mikael Silvestre London North London Harry Kane Mikel Arteta Mykhaylo Mudryk EPL Tottenham Hotspur

Former Arsenal and Manchester United defender Mikael Silvestre has named just two Tottenham Hotspur players in his combined north London derby XI.

The Gunners have enjoyed an incredible start to their 2022/23 Premier League campaign, winning 14 of their first 17 fixtures, losing just once in the process. That run of form leaves them sitting five points clear of second-placed Manchester City although the two title rivals are yet to meet yet this term.

Next up for Mikel Arteta's side is a trip to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to take on local rivals Spurs, who find themselves sitting fifth in the current league standings. Ahead of Sunday's highly-anticipated clash, former Arsenal man Silvestre was asked to make a combined XI between the two bitter foes and the Frenchman was reluctant to include many of Antonio Conte's squad.
