"Today showed Arsenal is alive more than anyone thought before the game. We had an emphatic performance today where on the spirit and technical side, and the drive of the whole team and style of the way we want to play, everything was perfect despite a very bad start.
"I felt in the first five minutes, Spurs started well. It was all us for the next 85 minutes. We were 2-0 down and just refused to lose the game and kept going no matter what happened.
"Once we were back to 2-2, you saw that if we maintained the pace we would win the game.
"There was a good balance between offence and defence, between creativity and going into the space behind their defenders and we showed good maturity. We had a great spirit."
"Unfortunately we have some bad news for Rosicky today and Vermaelen as well. Vermaelen has an ankle problem and Rosicky a back problem. I don't think they will be available for international duty on Wednesday. Will they be available for Saturday? There is a big doubt."
