Former Arsenal hero Theo Walcott has branded bitter rivals Tottenham "negative" ahead of Sunday's hotly-anticipated North London Derby.
Ex-England international Walcott is also predicting that Arsenal will win the Premier League title this season, in a damning indictment of where the two rivals sit at present. While the Gunners are riding high at the top of the table and boast a five-point lead over Manchester City, Spurs are in fifth and once again look set for another scrap to finish inside the Champions League places.
They'll go head-to-head on Sunday evening in a mouthwatering clash, but Walcott is hoping that there won't be much of a contest. "I'm very confident to be honest," the 33-year-old forward, now of Southampton, told talkSPORT. "I feel like Tottenham play quite a negative style."
