đź”— Share this article Bentancur and Danso Have North London Derby Days to Forget Gunners Squad Performance Reviews David Raya Hardly handled the ball as the Gunners dominated the game. Is likely disappointed to have been caught napping by the Brazilian forward. 6 JurriĂ«n Timber Seldom puts a foot wrong and was able to advance at will. Determination paid off in his assist for Eberechi Eze's second goal. 8 William Saliba Rarely tested by Spurs' defensive approach. There will be tougher challenges to come in the next few weeks without his usual defensive partner. 7 Piero HincapiĂ© Appeared confident in deputising for Gabriel MagalhĂŁes. Lacks the his physical prowess but makes up for it with skill and good decision-making. 7 Riccardo Calafiori Hadn’t trained all week due to a hip issue but didn’t look off the pace. Provides Arsenal with excellent energy all over the pitch. 8 MartĂn Zubimendi Directed the game from the base of midfield with typical authority. Luckily, his mistake in giving the ball away for Richarlison’s goal didn’t affect the result. 7 Declan Rice Could have done better with early chance but can never fault his effort. Tottenham could not cope with his powerful runs from midfield. 8 Eberechi Eze It had to be him against the club he turned down in the summer. Delivered a moment of brilliance to score a brilliant first before excellent finishes for his next two goals. 9 Bukayo Saka A few handbags with the defender in the first half before springing to life. Enjoyed celebrating the three goals almost as much as the scorer did. 8 Mikel Merino Always a eager runner playing up front and provided a moment of quality with a sublime pass for the left winger's goal. 8 Leandro Trossard Expertly took his goal. Will be hard to displace him from the left flank once the rest of Arsenal’s attacking options return. 8 Subs: Noni Madueke (for Trossard, 78) A welcome return from knee injury 7; Ethan Nwaneri (for Merino, 86) n/a; Cristhian Mosquera (for Hincapie, 86) n/a; Myles Lewis-Skelly (for Calafiori, 90) n/s Spurs Squad Performance Reviews Guglielmo Vicario Two decent saves as he perfected the art of slowing play in the first half. No chance with any of the Arsenal strikes. 6 Kevin Danso Made a shaky start after being brought into a three-man defense. No surprise that he was replaced at half-time. 5 Cristian Romero Usually a reliable center-back but could not handle Arsenal’s constant pressure. Added to his misery by receiving a booking that means he is now banned. 5 Micky van de Ven The quick Dutchman came to his team's rescue on several instances. Yet he was unable to stop Arsenal once they hit their stride. 6 Djed Spence Too sluggish to respond to stop the winger's goal and found himself under pressure. A testing occasion for the England defender. 5 Rodrigo Bentancur Spent most of the afternoon struggling to keep up. Could have done much more to stop the attacker from dribbling through to score his first. 4 JoĂŁo Palhinha Put himself about in the center but was guilty of leaving an huge space for Eze to capitalise on twice. 5 Destiny Udogie Found it difficult to handle Saka. To blame for Arsenal’s third goal and doubts remain about his defending. 5 Wilson Odobert Was hard to work out what position he had been asked to fulfil. Couldn’t get any success out of the defender. 5 Richarlison Found it hard to make any influence in the first half. But his excellent lob at least gave Tottenham something to take pride in. 7 Mohammed Kudus Virtually anonymous aside from a couple of encouraging early moments. Needs more support but spends too much time on the fringes. 5 Subs: Xavi Simons (for Danso, ht) Made a difference with eagerness to advance with ball 6; Pape Sarr (for Odobert, 67) Added some drive 6; Randal Kolo Muani (for Bentancur, 67) Looked off the pace 5; Brennan Johnson (for Kudus, 78) The game was already lost 6; Pedro Porro (for Spence, 78) Ended game arguing with the midfielder 6.
