Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta praised opposite number Ange Postecoglou\u2019s impact at Tottenham ahead of the north London derby on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Postecoglou\u2019s free-scoring Spurs have netted 13 times in five Premier League matches to make an unbeaten start to the top-flight campaign.<\/p>\n

And Arteta admitted he is a fan of the Australian, who has positively changed the atmosphere at Spurs despite the summer departure of star striker Harry Kane.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have a new challenge, a new opportunity, they have a new manager who is doing really well and he\u2019s managed to change the vibe around the club and with a different style too, so we need to be ourselves and produce the performance to beat them,\u201d Arteta said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really like him. I have players who had him before and they always speak really highly of him, which is not a coincidence because straight away he\u2019s fitting in the right way and that\u2019s the beauty of the league where there are top managers, competition and every game is very difficult.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe recent year has been beautiful (against Tottenham \u2013 Arsenal won twice last season) and it\u2019s about being with our supporters when we manage to win the game and the satisfaction that you give to everyone. It\u2019s a special day for everybody and hopefully we can do that again.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have many qualities (despite Kane\u2019s departure) so it\u2019s a big change but they have adapted well to it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Goalkeeper David Raya has started ahead of Aaron Ramsdale in Arsenal\u2019s last two games, against Everton and then PSV in the Champions League.<\/p>\n

Arteta insisted he understands Ramsdale\u2019s frustration of not starting and highlighted the competition for places which forced a change at number one.<\/p>\n

\u201cI understand (his frustration) and it\u2019s very difficult for every player and I suffer and care about every player who\u2019s not playing but this is the competition and this is my job as well to make decisions in the best possible way for the team,\u201d Arteta added.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s been very supportive and good around the place and that\u2019s what I expect from every single player because when you\u2019re on the field there is someone else who\u2019s not so it works both ways. So far he\u2019s been very good.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is hard and with other players it\u2019s the same. Aaron (Ramsdale) is an exceptional character and has a charisma and aura around him and we all know that so I fully understand that (why he\u2019s frustrated at being benched), we have to deal with that but I need to make a line-up to prepare for the game.<\/p>\n

He’s been very supportive and good around the place and that’s what I expect from every single player<\/p>\n

\u201cI haven\u2019t decided who will start.\u201d<\/p>\n

Arteta lauded captain Martin Odegaard after the midfielder signed a new long-term deal at the Emirates.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cHe\u2019s got a really good balance (as a captain) and you notice him around the building because he always does the right things, he\u2019s funny and likeable, committed and I\u2019m really happy to have him as a captain.\u201d<\/p>\n
