• New coach starts tenure against Arsenal on Sunday

• Tudor insists ‘we have enormous quality in the squad’

Igor Tudor has said Tottenham are in “an emergency situation” but issued a guarantee that his new team would escape relegation.

Tudor is a veteran of short-term appointments and has performed rescue jobs at Udinese, Verona and Juventus. He offered a curt “100%” in response to questions on his confidence in Spurs’s survival. The Croat’s tenure begins on Sunday with a north London derby at home to the wobbling Premier League leaders, though a lengthy injury list leaves him with only 13 fit senior players.
