Antonio Conte: Tottenham manager critical of Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta's fixture complaints

Tottenham manager Antonio Conte says Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has no right to complain about an unfair fixture list after January's north London derby was called off at their request.

"Arteta should remember the postponed game. Tottenham-Arsenal," Conte said.

"I don't forget this. And it's not right to speak about fair or unfair."

Spurs expressed their surprise when their home fixture was postponed despite their being only one confirmed case of coronavirus in the Arsenal squad.

That specific incident also led the Premier League to change the rules regarding fixture postponements.
