Tottenham are in the Champions League on merit, according to Arsene Wenger. Arsenal's North London rivals wrote their spot in Europe's premier club competition for the first time ever with a midweek win over Manchester City. Spurs could yet pip Wenger's part to a place in The Champions League group stage if they win at Burnley on Sunday and Arsenal lose at home to Fulham. But at the very least they will form a qualifier in august and Wenger believes tottenham are worthy of their place among Europe's elite.
