Arsenal vs Tottenham Hotspur: 'Mesut Ozil and Danny Welbeck are a very interesting combination for Arsenal,' says Arsene Wenger
Gunners' manager has talked up the impact of his attackers

Ahead of tomorrow's north London derby against Tottenham, Arsene Wenger has spoken of his delight at his attacking pairing of Mesut Ozil and Danny Welbeck, saying that the two are a "very interesting combination" for Arsenal.
The pair combined to devastating effect in the 3-0 victory over Aston Villa last weekend, with either setting up a goal for the other.
"Ozil played very well with Welbeck [against Villa]," said Wenger. "That's a very interesting combination for us."
Arsenal were knocked out of the League Cup on Tuesday after losing 2-1 at home against Southampton. Wenger made 10 changes to the side who beat Villa for that match, and he says it will be a much-changed Gunners' starting XI for the derby at the Emirates.
"It was a disappointment to go out against Southampton but there will be a completely different team tomorrow."
Per Mertesacker had been suffering with a glute muscle injury but Wenger says the towering German centre-back will be available for the fixture.
"He has normal training today and I don't think there will be a problem."
