Arsenal v Tottenham Key Battles With Danny Welbeck Looking To Score Again In North London Derby

Emmanuel Adebayor vs. Per Mertesacker

Emmanuel Adebayor is never far from the thick of the action when playing against former club Arsenal, whether that is scoring goals or seeing the red card flashed in his direction. Pochettino will know that playing Adebayor would be a significant risk – but, if the Togolese striker is focused, he has the physical ability mixed with the touch to cause real problems for Arsenal and, in particular, Per Mertesacker – a player who can be beaten for pace.
