Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has claimed that north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur are a dozen years behind the Gunners.
Wenger refuted Spurs captain Robbie Keane's claim that Tottenham are ready to overtake their rivals in the Premier League.
"I don’t share that opinion. How do you measure the dimension of a club? Success. Exactly," Wenger told Mirror Football.
"So if you look at success historically, they have a lot of work to do. We have been 12 consecutive years in the Champions League so once they have done that they can say, of course, that they are similar.
Tottenham have not finished ahead of Arsenal in the Premier League since Wenger took over and have not beaten Arsenal in the Premier League in 10 years.

"So if you look at success historically, they have a lot of work to do. We have been 12 consecutive years in the Champions League so once they have done that they can say, of course, that they are similar.
"They have the potential, the supporters, they are a big club. But what comes next is the consistency of achievement. At the moment nobody would deny that Arsenal is in front of them."
Wenger has no doubts that Tottenham are a ambitious and strong club, although he does not think they pose a huge threat.
"Tottenham are a big club, they invest massive money every year, why should they not be a threat? But we have always managed to get in front of them."Tottenham have not finished ahead of Arsenal in the Premier League since Wenger took over and have not beaten Arsenal in the Premier League in 10 years.
