Mikel Arteta masterminded yet another top performance and victory from his Arsenal team, this time in the north London derby. This has been a fixture entirely out of the hands of the Gunners for the past nine years with the previous win in 2014, in which Arteta was actually a starter.
Arsenal ran out 2-0 victors in the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, goals from Hugo Lloris (into his own net) and Martin Odegaard were the difference on the day but the Gunners’ overall quality is certainly what earned them the win in the derby.
However, despite the victory, once again Mikel Arteta made it very clear to the Arsenal ownership where his side are lacking. The Gunners made their first substitute in the game in the 79th minute with Kieran Tierney coming on to play left wing-back with Oleksandr Zinchenko moving to left centre-half.
