Igor Tudor has spoken to the media for the first time ahead of the north London derby against Arsenal this Sunday (4:30pm). That fixture will mark Tudor's first game in charge following the sacking of Thomas Frank earlier this month.
The 47‑year‑old Croatian admitted it has been a difficult week, with training affected by a severely depleted squad. Providing an injury update, he said: "In this particular moment, with 10 injuries, we trained with 13 players.
"It is what is is. It's not fantastic, beautiful but 13 we will have and it is quite enough to achieve what we want on Sunday."

When asked about whether Dominic Solanke would be available, Tudor added: "Probably no, Solanke has some problem with his throat but he made two days training. All the others, some are next week."
Tudor is focused on the task ahead, determined to ensure Spurs fight to secure their Premier League status for next season. "I didn't enjoy because I’m not here to enjoy," he stressed.
"I’m here to work. It's the first moment and there’s work to do. It’s a privilege to be here." He then insisted Spurs will be '100 per cent' a Premier League club next campaign.
