David Luiz believes Sunday’s north London derby against Tottenham is the perfect game for Arsenal to get their Premier League campaign back on track.
Luiz believes entertaining Tottenham—who are also coming into the game at Emirates Stadium on the back of a first loss of the season, following Newcastle’s 1-0 away win on Sunday—is the ideal opportunity for the Gunners to put Saturday’s reverse behind them.
"There is no better opportunity than that," said the Brazil center-half.
"We are going to play at home against a fantastic team, against a team who are going to fight with us until the end for the same goals, the same objectives. So, we’re going to do our best to win.
"It's going to be a tough game and I'm looking forward to that. When you lose a game, you want to play another game tomorrow. They have signed new players, amazing players, so it's up to us to win the game."
Luiz has plenty of experience of playing against Tottenham from his time at Chelsea, but this will be his first taste of a north London derby.
"It's always special to play football. I play because I love it," he said.
"I still have the ambition to do big things in football. It’s going to be special for me, for sure."

Chelsea have conceded 9 goals in 4 matches without you.. But unfortunately, people criticize your occasional mistakes, overlooking the many contributions you make to the team. Conte won the epl with you, Sarri won the Europa with you.. Zouma sent Stoke to relegation.

Zouma and Christisen can only play at right hand of two central defence and Zouma sacrifice himself to try new thing and you are here saying something you don't have knowledge of. Wake up bro, you have to know many things in football before you start comment here
Please save me the lame excuses..Just pray Lampard puts him on the bench and you'll see we'll concede less goals. 9 in 4 games is alarming.

I know Luiz made mistakes in Liverpool game,but one thing I have observed about him is the fact that he wants to make Arsenal players believe they can achieve something big. He is trying his level best to instill a winning mentality into this team. And frankly, Arsenal have lacked this in recent years. To me ,it is a very good move. He doesn't wants his switch to Arsenal to be a down grade. However, he should also show it on the pitch by avoiding such Liverpool mistakes.
Yeah. Luiz has a lot of passion but he makes too many mistakes. It's as if he's afraid of getting a card

Here's the thing about Luiz, hate him fr being a Blue but love his passion for the game and even though he can be erratic sometimes, he's a pretty decent CB and will improve your defence massively.
