Everyone wants to play. I\u2019m like this. So, you always do your best for the club.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Richarlison, meanwhile, admitted he would seek psychological help after enduring such a \u2018turbulent time\u2019 off the pitch that he broke down in tears when substituted in Brazil\u2019s victory over Bolivia.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/23\/22\/75768527-12553525-image-a-55_1695504400147.jpg\" height=\"482\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Gabriel Jesus will be hoping to start for Arsenal as he builds confidence following an injury<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/23\/22\/75768529-12553525-image-a-56_1695504460702.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Richarlison will aim to build on his major contribution for Spurs in the win over Sheffield United<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Yet it was Richarlison\u2019s impact off the bench that saw Spurs come from behind against Sheffield United, setting up the 97th-minute equaliser before he scored the winner two minutes later.<\/p>\n<p>Richarlison, if he starts, has some hefty derby boots to fill. This is the first north London derby in the Premier League in nine years not to involve Harry Kane. Kane scored 14 goals in his 17 derby appearances.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Obviously, that\u2019s not good for them, losing a player like Kane,\u2019 Jesus said. \u2018But they have a good team, they have good strikers \u2014 like Richarlison \u2014 and I hope we play better and we win the game.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>History suggests Arsenal will. To find the last time Tottenham won at the Emirates in the Premier League, you must go to a 3-2 comeback in November 2010, their one and only league triumph at Arsenal\u2019s new home.<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube, Apple Music and Spotify.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/08\/02\/636x90_facebook_ad_sport.png\" width=\"636\" height=\"90\"><br \/>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12553525\/Gabriel-Jesus-Richarlison-key-north-London-derby.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Gabriel Jesus and\u00a0Richarlison have\u00a0endured difficult starts to the season&#8230;
