đź”— Share this article Bentancur and Danso Endure Derby Humiliating Afternoons Gunners Squad Ratings David Raya Rarely saw the ball as the Gunners commanded the match. Will be disappointed to have been surprised by Richarlison. 6 JurriĂ«n Timber Rarely ever puts a foot wrong and was able to attack at will. Persistence paid off in his key pass for Eberechi Eze's second goal. 8 William Saliba Seldom challenged by Spurs' defensive approach. There will be bigger tests to come in the next few weeks without his usual defensive partner. 7 Piero HincapiĂ© Appeared confident in deputising for the Brazilian defender. Doesn’t possess the Brazilian’s physical prowess but compensates with skill and good judgment. 7 Riccardo Calafiori Didn't practice all week due to a hip problem but didn’t look off the pace. Provides Arsenal with fantastic energy all over the field. 8 MartĂn Zubimendi Controlled the game from the midfield anchor with usual authority. Luckily, his mistake in giving the ball away for the consolation strike didn’t affect the result. 7 Declan Rice Should have done better with first opportunity but can never fault his work rate. Tottenham could not cope with his powerful runs from deep. 8 Eberechi Eze It had to be him against the club he turned down in the summer. Produced a moment of brilliance to score a superb first before superb finishes for his second and third goals. 9 Bukayo Saka A few exchanges with Udogie 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 filling in up front and provided a moment of quality with a exquisite pass for the left winger's goal. 8 Leandro Trossard Expertly took his goal. Will be hard to shift him from the left wing once the rest of Arsenal’s forward players return. 8 Subs: Noni Madueke (for Trossard, 78) A positive return from injury layoff 7; Ethan Nwaneri (for Merino, 86) n/a; Cristhian Mosquera (for Hincapie, 86) n/a; Myles Lewis-Skelly (for Calafiori, 90) n/s Tottenham Player Ratings Guglielmo Vicario Two decent saves as he perfected the art of timewasting in the first half. Little opportunity with any of the goals. 6 Kevin Danso Made a nervous start after being introduced to a three-man defense. Expected that he was replaced at half-time. 5 Cristian Romero Usually a dependable center-back but could not handle Arsenal’s 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 side’s rescue on several instances. Yet he was powerless to stop Arsenal once they hit their stride. 6 Djed Spence Far too slow to react to stop the winger's goal and found himself under pressure. A testing occasion for the English full-back. 5 Rodrigo Bentancur Spent most of the afternoon chasing shadows. Could have done far better to stop the attacker from running past to score his opening goal. 4 JoĂŁo Palhinha Put himself about in the center but was guilty of leaving an huge space for Eze to exploit twice. 5 Destiny Udogie Found it tough to handle Saka. At fault for Arsenal’s third and question marks remain about his defending. 5 Wilson Odobert Was difficult to work out what role he had been asked to fulfil. Couldn’t get any change out of Timber. 5 Richarlison Struggled to make any influence in the first half. But his superb 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 periphery. 5 Subs: Xavi Simons (for Danso, ht) Made a difference with willingness 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 exchanging words with the midfielder 6.
