đ Share this article Danso and Bentancur Experience North London Derby Humiliating Afternoons Arsenal Player Performance Reviews David Raya Barely touched the ball as the Gunners commanded the fixture. Will be disappointed to have been caught napping by the Brazilian forward. 6 JurriĂ«n Timber Seldom puts a foot wrong and was able to attack at will. Determination paid off in his key pass for Eberechi Eze's second goal. 8 William Saliba Rarely tested by Tottenhamâs defensive approach. There will be bigger tests to come in the next few weeks without his usual defensive partner. 7 Piero HincapiĂ© Looked assured in deputising for the Brazilian defender. Lacks the Brazilianâs physical prowess but makes up for it with skill and good decision-making. 7 Riccardo Calafiori Didn't practice all week due to a hip issue but didnât look sluggish. Provides Arsenal with fantastic energy all over the field. 8 MartĂn Zubimendi Controlled the game from the base of midfield with usual authority. Luckily, his mistake in giving the ball away for Richarlisonâs goal didnât affect the outcome. 7 Declan Rice Could have done better with early chance but can never fault his work rate. Tottenham could not handle his marauding runs from midfield. 8 Eberechi Eze It had to be him against the team he rejected in the summer. Produced a moment of magic to score a superb first before excellent finishes for his next two goals. 9 Bukayo Saka A few exchanges with Udogie in the first half before coming alive. 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 difficult to displace him from the left wing once the rest of Arsenalâs 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 Ratings Guglielmo Vicario Two decent saves as he mastered the art of slowing play in the first half. Little opportunity with any of the Arsenal strikes. 6 Kevin Danso Made a nervous start after being introduced to a three-man defense. No surprise that he was substituted at the break. 5 Cristian Romero Usually a reliable center-back but could not cope with Arsenalâs incessant pressure. Completed misery by picking up a booking that means he is now banned. 5 Micky van de Ven The speedy Dutchman came to his sideâs rescue on several instances. Yet he was powerless to stop Arsenal once they found their rhythm. 6 Djed Spence Far too slow to respond to stop the winger's goal and found himself pinned back. A difficult occasion for the English full-back. 5 Rodrigo Bentancur Spent most of the afternoon chasing shadows. Could have done far better to stop Eze from running past to score his first. 4 JoĂŁo Palhinha Put himself about in midfield but was at fault of leaving an enormous space for Eze to capitalise on twice. 5 Destiny Udogie Found it tough to contain the winger. To blame for Arsenalâs third and question marks remain about his defending. 5 Wilson Odobert Was hard to work out what role he had been asked to play. Couldnât get any success out of the defender. 5 Richarlison Struggled to make any influence in the first half. But his excellent lob at least gave Tottenham something to take pride in. 7 Mohammed Kudus Almost anonymous aside from a couple of encouraging early touches. Needs more service but spends too much time on the fringes. 5 Subs: Xavi Simons (for Danso, ht) Made a difference with willingness to drive forward with ball 6; Pape Sarr (for Odobert, 67) Added some drive 6; Randal Kolo Muani (for Bentancur, 67) Looked slow 5; Brennan Johnson (for Kudus, 78) The game was already lost 6; Pedro Porro (for Spence, 78) Ended game exchanging words with the midfielder 6.
