Tottenham may not be very happy with the prospect of Mike Dean refereeing the North London derby after his "big mistake" cost him against Arsenal last November.
The Premier League has named Dean as the referee for Sunday's match between the two tough rivals at Emirates, despite the controversial fiftieth anniversary of the last Arsenal derby in North London.
The Gunners defeated Tottenham 2-0 Last November, Shkodran Mustafi and Alexis Sanchez scored goals.
But Mauricio Pochettino blamed Dean for his defeat, highlighting his "huge mistake" by giving Arsenal a free kick for the first goal.
"If you badyze the game, until we concede the goal, the team was fine and I think we were better than them," he said at the time .
"But in the end, there was a huge mistake like this: it was not a mistake, but two mistakes.
"It was not a fault and it was offside. And at that time, all our plans changed and of course that affected the team.
"Then we conceded the goal quickly, for 2-0. Returning to this kind of game is always difficult. If you badyze, when you meet a team of the same level, whoever scores first always has a better chance of winning the match.
"It's so hard to explain, little details, maybe big details can change every game. Until then, things have happened, maybe Xhaka should be kicked out before.
"The foul was not a foul, the goal was offside, but we lost. I am very disappointed with the result, the way we conceded the goals, of course. "
Eric Dier also added: "There are so many things at stake, but a goal to be defined in the way it was decided is very disappointing.
"It changed the game. I do not want to have any problems, but everyone can see it.
"If it's a mistake, we will not be able to touch you soon. Nobody wants that. But there can be no excuse. "
Of course, neither Dean's fans, Tottenham.
