Rash Antonio Conte decision in North London Derby leaves Tottenham fans angry

Antonio Conte's quadruple substitution against Arsenal didn't go down well with Tottenham fans.

Spurs were beaten by rivals Arsenal in the North London Derby to lose their unbeaten league record, dropping four points behind their fierce rivals in the process. The unbeaten run had stretched back to a few games from the end of last season, and included a victory over the Gunners back in May.

After Thomas Partey and Harry Kane exchanged goals in the first half, Gabriel Jesus and Granit Xhaka netted either side of an Emerson Royal red card.
