Arsenal made it look easy in the North London derby, running out 3-1 winners against archrivals Tottenham Hotspur.
"We have a really meaningful opportunity to give a lot of people happiness on a beautiful day and we have delivered that and it is a really great feeling. I tried to give minutes to players because the game had ended and also to try and save energy. [Bukayo Saka](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/280555/Bukayo-Saka)'s tame 49th-minute shot straight out in front of him and then allowing the loose ball to squirm under him as [Clement Lenglet](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/193917/Clément-Lenglet) struggled to clear, allowing Jesus a tap-in. Tottenham: Conte will take his Spurs squad to Germany on Tuesday to face Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League. "The players grabbed the game and deserved to win it," Arteta said. "We made a big mistake with the last pass because we had great space. [Liverpool](/soccer/team?id=364) and [Manchester City](/soccer/team?id=382) for the title. "It was the whole team -- starting from the back to front. That progress has to continue, otherwise speculation will quickly resurface over whether an ambitious striker already proven as one of the Premier League's finest can really achieve his ultimate aims at Tottenham -- and links with [Bayern Munich](/soccer/team?id=132) persist. It will come as little comfort to Kane given the result but he became the first player ever to score 100 away goals in the Premier League with a 31st-minute penalty that drew Spurs level in the first half. Tottenham have won multiple matches without playing well this season, staying in games before their attacking talent comes to the fore, and it appeared for a while that would be the case here as Arsenal dominated the opening half hour before a rare breakaway saw Gabriel bring down Richarlison in the box. For the most part, they also avoided the same mistakes as when losing at [Manchester United](/soccer/team?id=360) in a similar sort of game.
Arsenal meted out their usual punishment to north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur at The Emirates with Thomas Partey, Gabriel Jesus and Granit Xhaka all on ...
"From the first second I think we were the better team," Xhaka said. Tottenham began the second half in sloppy fashion, and when Bukayo Saka fired in a shot, Lloris parried it out to Romero who bundled the ball back towards his keeper, only for it to squirm out of the Frenchman's grasp just enough for Jesus to convert. It was a sweet moment for the Brazilian, whose fifth goal of the season sent a reminder to his national side's manager Tite, who left him out of the squad last month. "After we conceded we were struggling a little bit, but in the second half we were much better, and I am so happy to score my first derby goal and help the team to win." They are third with 17 points. Royal was then red-carded in the 62nd minute for a needless kick out at Martinelli deep in Arsenal's half, and five minutes later Xhaka swept in Arsenal's third to leave Tottenham reeling.
Mikel Arteta has said he believes Arsenal's 3-1 win over Tottenham has sent a message to his players they can beat the Premier League's elite.
"Looking at the table and seeing the club in this position is great," continued the Spaniard. It's nothing that we have done yet and there's still a lot of things to improve. That should give them confidence and belief."
Under manager Mikel Arteta, Arsenal are “slowly erasing those scars” that have haunted the club over the years, according to BT Sport's Rio Ferdinand.
“I’m sure he will have a good career going forward. He was the most composed centre-back on the pitch today. I think Mikel is slowly, slowly creating a super team." Premier League The club – who are without a Premier League title since 2004 and have not featured in the Champions League since 2016 – have been accused of having a ‘soft centre’ in recent years. The Gunners have made a blistering start to the Premier League season,

The second half began well for Arteta’s side, in part because of a Tottenham error, but the mistake came because of the pressure Arsenal exerted. Royal is a player who has divided opinion for some time but his supporters are dwindling by the day. And Tottenham is a side adept at making the most of the occasional counter. Past Arsenals might have wilted upon Kane’s equalizer, but this side has shown hints this season that it is developing a backbone. As it was, the opening goal didn’t come until the 20th minute, with Thomas Partey capitalizing on being gifted far too much space outside the box to sweep in his first of the season after a patient passing move. But Arsenal, for all the fight it has shown in certain games this season, is not a side yet that can quite be trusted—as was apparent at United.

[Emerson Royal had been sent off for a nasty challenge on Gabriel Martinelli,](https://www.goal.com/en/news/emerson-royal-shown-straight-red-card-challenge-martinelli-left-arsenal-furious/bltcf5203aefee66d6a) Granit Xhaka struck to make sure of the points, and maintain Arsenal's position at the top of the table. To their credit, Arsenal brushed off the disappointment of conceding the penalty by restoring their lead just four minutes into the second half, with Gabriel Jesus tapping home after a horrible error by Hugo Lloris. This was game was billed as being too tight to call by many but, in the end, Arsenal proved far too good for their neighbours as they cruised to a 3-1 win over Tottenham at a cauldron-like Emirates Stadium.
They sealed their win with goals by Thomas Partey, Gabriel Jesus and Granit Xhaka.
David Seaman has urged Granit Xhaka to 'keep his head' and avoid getting sent off in Saturday's north London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham.
Xhaka will surely be in Mikel Arteta's starting XI for the meeting with Tottenham, with the 30-year-old having become a pivotal part of the Gunners midfield. A win for Arsenal would see them pull clear at the top of the Premier League table, and extend their advantage over Spurs to four points. Mikel Arteta will undoubtedly be relying on one of his most experienced players to keep his cool and stay focused in Saturday's north London derby.
The Arsenal manager refused to be drawn into talk of a title challenge, while Antonio Conte lamented officiating standards after Emerson's red card.
I don’t know if they do that in this country but it would be a good idea because the level is so high and we need the level of the referee and VAR the same. The Premier League is a really high level and every part of this situation has to be top.” “There are images and I think everybody can think what is the best decision, but I don’t want to comment on this. “In England it is very difficult because there isn’t the same line. “We know what’s at stake in this game, it’s a bit more than three points,” he said. It’s nothing that we have done yet and there’s still a lot of things to improve.
Martin Odegaard revealed that Thomas Partey's wonderful strike that opened the scoring in the 3-1 win against Tottenham Hotspur was something straight off ...
All the games this year they’ve been amazing and it’s nice to give them this win back. “From that moment I think we controlled the game again and it was a solid win in the end. “We know how much they help us, we know how much they believe in us now and we want to give them something back.
A gleeful Mikel Arteta attended his post-match press conference having seen his side beat Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 to remain top of the Premier League.
Because when you play such a big game, you want to win, and those opinions are correct because when you look at the stats and if you just put it in that context, you can do it. But we have to - first of all - have what we have, and with that group of players and that connection I think it is much easier, that something nice can happen. Because emotion is related, and the table says what it says, but it is not something that we look at. Absolutely [this result can be a springboard], I think it started in that dressing room when you get the right people and the right players and they start to connect with each other. I think this is the biggest success that this group of players are having. It’s quicker, you are closer to the goal and it’s easier to do.

(Xinhua) Liverpool's goalkeeper Alisson Becker (3rd L) complains to the referee after Brighton & Hove Albion's opening goal during the English Premier League match between Liverpool and Brighton & Hove Albion in Liverpool, Britain, on Oct. In the day's last game, West Ham beat Wolverhampton 2-0 thanks to goals from Gianluca Scamacca after 29 minutes and Jarrod Bowen in the 54th minute.
The Gunners face Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium next weekend and it may be the perfect time for Arsenal to come up against Klopp's side.
We could have won but would we have deserved to win? We have to accept it. But we will give it a proper try." We have to go together and build. "I know we have 10 points and that’s the reality. It's a strange position for Arsenal to be in, as they have an abysmal recent record against the Reds.
The former Gunners defender made a statement before the North London Derby which was quickly proven wrong during the game.
Before the game, Martin Keown said that Arsenal were 'behind Tottenham' and that Conte's side had a huge chance of winning silverware this term. Spurs may yet go on to win silverware this season and finish above Arsenal, but based purely on Saturday's evidence, Keown's verdict on his old club being 'behind' Tottenham looks incorrect. North London Derbies are always huge occasions, but this was billed as a particularly big clash because both sides had started the season in such impressive fashion.

Nice manager Lucien Favre dropped Arsenal loanee Nicolas Pepe as Mikel Arteta decision to move the Ivory Coast international on receives vindication.
Since this, the performances have not particularly improved which has seemingly led to the drop against PSG. "If one or two players don’t do the work, the whole team is in trouble. Instead, Barkley was chosen in place of the Arsenal loanee. He has so far scored just once in eight matches, his sole goal coming from the penalty spot too. However, since making the switch to France, things have not gone smoothly. Mikel Arteta preferred the young Bukayo Saka over the Ivorian and rarely gave Pepe too many chances to prove him wrong.
Arsenal duo Matt Turner and Rob Holding were spotted at Tottenham's stadium just one day after Arsenal secured a victory in the North London Derby.
Turner then added: "Great result, my first North London Derby so it was definitely one to remember and it was really special to be a part of." The pair were interviewed by [ Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/teams/arsenal/12710244/rob-holding-im-a-huge-nfl-fan), with Holding firstly saying: "If we lost yesterday then coming here might have been a bit tougher, but yeah it was a great result. "It was an incredible atmosphere to play in so I’m so grateful to the people who connect to the team in such a special way." The match was just that as the world watched a game that included four goals, one penalty and a red card in an entertaining affair.
