Arsenal vs. Tottenham score: Gunners cruise over 10-man Spurs ... (CBSSports.com)

Arsenal have ensured that they'll spend yet another weekend atop the Premier League after an emphatic 3-1 win over Tottenham in the North London derby.

Brazil will be tracking what the duo does but it could be a decision that comes down to the final days before the World Cup. It's always up to the player to avoid giving a referee a decision to make in these scenarios, and Arsenal showed Spurs why it's so critical not to make dumb mistakes. Kulusevski picked up a knock while on international duty for Sweden but for Spurs' sake, hopefully, he'll be back in the rotation sooner than later. After defeating Leicester City 6-2 before the international break, the hope was that Tottenham would bring momentum through the time off and into this headline match, but it wasn't to be as their struggles at the Emirates will continue. It was a rash tactical foul, with Emerson going in quite high, the kind of prototypical "orange card" offense that sometimes ends in a red but often leads to a yellow card. Mistakes are punished in derby matches, and Saturday it was Spurs who let the occasion get to them.

Match Report: Arsenal 3 – 1 Tottenham (She Wore A Yellow Ribbon)

(4-2-3-1) Aaron Ramsdale; Ben White, William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhāes, Oleksandr Zinchenko; Thomas Partey, Granit Xhaka; Bukayo Saka, Martin Ødegaard (c), ...

William Saliba was masterful and is growing into a top-class defender, but the man of the match was undoubtedly Granit Xhaka, whose top-class performance and leadership skills fired the boys on to greater glories. And then, on the sixty-sixth minute, Thomas Partey found Gabriel Martinelli, who carried it along the edge of the box and left it for Granit Xhaka, who struck the ball low and hard and it was in the back of the net in the blink of an eye. Ben White was replaced by Takehiro Tomiyasu with a couple of minutes left of the game, and shortly afterwards, Kieran Tierney was unlucky not to add to our tally with an excellent twenty-five yard shot, in which Hugo Lloris just about got his fingertips to it, to push it by his left-hand post for an Arsenal corner. Remember everyone, keep the faith, get behind the team and the manager, as this season is going to be crucial for our future success in all competitions. As half-time approached, Gabriel Jesus received a ball from Martin Ødegaard, and it looked like he was going to score a second goal, as he danced through the Spurs defence, but the Spurs goalie was on hand to gather the ball up and neutralise the chance. In time added on, game management came into play, and the closest we came to scoring a fourth was when Gabriel Martinelli fired a free-kick over the Spurs bar. We regrouped quickly, with Gabriel Jesus carrying it through the middle of the pitch but was unable to feed it through to Gabriel Martinelli, who was in a surefire scoring position. The second half went underway with us looking for a quick and sharp start pressurising the visitors in their own half, and sure enough, just four minutes after the restart, Bukayo Saka whipped in a strong shot, which was completely mishandled by Hugo Lloris; thankfully Gabriel Jesus was on hand to nick the ball and fire it home from point-blank range. We dominated possession so much, that the match was starting to resemble a training game; William Saliba received a yellow card for an unfortunate tackle, and with twelve minutes of the game remaining, Gabriel Jesus and captain Martin Ødegaard (who handed the coveted armband to Granit Xhaka) was replaced by Eddie Nketiah and Fabio Vieira and our domination continued seamlessly. A Richarlison effort brought out a superb reflex save from Aaron Ramsdale, and as Harry Kane was flagged for an offside effort on our goal, it served as a good lesson for our defenders not to be complacent in the face of such clear and present danger that the Spurs centre-forward presents. Our popular midfielder Emile Smith-Rowe is sidelined for three months due to a groin operation, and at the time of writing on the morning of the match, it remains to be seen if Kieran Tierney will be fit enough to participate in today’s match. We will, of course, be more than keen to eradicate the sad memory of the last match between us, and the best way to do that is by ensuring a victory against our old rivals from N17, who are currently a single point behind ourselves in the Premiership table this morning.

The reason Antonio Conte didn't change Spurs' formation at Arsenal ... (Football.London)

Here are our talking points from Tottenham Hotspur's 3-1 defeat at Arsenal in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Emerson is a young player, he is only 23, I think he has to try and exploit this situation to be better and in the next situation avoid totally the tackle. 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. It is only the Everton and United double header that does not have a European game in between. In the last season with two games to go we overcame Arsenal and Arsenal is playing the Europa League and we are playing Champions League. "Honestly, I always have said in the past that I don't like to comment on refereeing decisions. We have to move on and we have to hope we don't have any more injuries. The Brazilian has since been unable to train and Conte is concerned over when he might be available for selection again, particularly during this frantic run of 13 matches in 43 days ahead of the winter World Cup, a run of games that began with Saturday's 3-1 defeat at Arsenal. Now I think we have to move on and know we have to take the positivity of this game. "Then the second half, we started and we conceded the second goal and we can do much better, but in every situation. "I spoke with the players and said to try and move on quickly because sometimes you have a strange game," said Conte afterwards. The Swede missed the game after feeling a tightness in his hamstring following his 90 minutes for his country in midweek. Despite that brief playing time, Bissouma returned with a small problem and was a doubt at one stage in the days before the game.

Arsenal Player Ratings v Tottenham – Partey back to his very best (Just Arsenal News)

That was a pulsating North London Derby with two completely contrasting styles. Arsenal were dominant with the exception of the fifteen minutes after the ...

Continues to be a revelation in his freer role and his goal was technically perfect. Xhaka (8) In tandem with Partey he dominated the midfield and outplayed Hjoberg and Bentancur. Outstanding in possession, timely in his intercepts, incisive in his passing and always available for the out ball. Had a beautiful dribble out of defence when Arsenal were under pressure and the sight of Kane giving up in a ball when Saliba overtakes him was glorious to behold. Saliba (8) The question mark over how he will deal with the atmosphere of a NLD and Kane, Richarlison and Son was swiftly dispelled. White (8) Looks increasingly at home in his new position and hardly gave Son a sniff of the ball.

Berbatov says Tottenham 23-year-old was 'annoyed' they couldn't ... (HITC)

Dimitar Berbatov was critical of Emerson Royal's 'stupid' red-card challenge on Gabriel Martinelli during Tottenham's defeat to Arsenal.

They don’t touch the ball. They don’t give the ball. It’s not calculated and the ball is far away – it’s frustration. They were just running behind the ball. They always find the space. Always going to pass the ball and find an opportunity.
