Tottenham striker Peter Crouch wants to target any weaknesses in Arsenal's defence during the north London derby at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
Arsene Wenger's side conceded late goals against AZ Alkmaar and West Ham before defeatingin Liverpool the Carling Cup this week, with the Barclays Premier League clash against Spurs next up.
"You saw at the start of the (West Ham) game when they went 2-0 up that they play great football, as they always do," Crouch said. "Hopefully we can keep that to a minimum and, as West Ham proved, you can come back and you can score goals against them. Hopefully we'll be tight at the back and get a good result."
Crouch is relishing Spurs' role as potential top-four gatecrashers, although he feels Arsenal are showing resilience to stay in the hunt after being written off by critics following the departures of Emmanuel Adebayor, Kolo Toure to Mancheste City in the summer. and
"I think at the start of the season a lot of people wrote off Arsenal," Crouch told the Tottenham Journal. "They've got a young squad but they seem to have shown everyone that they can still play.
"But I think we've also surprised a few people by the way we've started. We're in the top four at the minute and we want to stay there as long as we possibly can."
