Arsenal v Tottenham: How players rated in Premier League north London derby


Guglielmo Vicario: 5.5

Questions over Eze’s first goal but was left exposed by some awful defending.

Kevin Danso: 4.5

Took his place in a back three but was left bewildered by Arsenal’s fluent attack. Subbed at half-time.

Cristian Romero: 6

Lives for nights like this, but 90 minutes to forget for the Tottenham captain.

Micky van de Ven: 5.5

Looked uncomfortable throughout. He was not the only Tottenham player to do so.

Djed Spence: 5.5

Off the pace at right wing-back. Had a good start to the season, but this was a day to forget.

Joao Palhinha: 6

Huffed and puffed in central midfield. Good tackle in the build-up to Richarlison’s goal.

Rodrigo Bentacur: 5.5

Picked up an booking which meant he was walking a tightrope. Replaced after 66 minutes.

Destiny Udogie: 5.5

Good tussle with Saka but the Arsenal forward came out victorious. Industrious – no more – on the left flank.

Mohamed Kudus: 5

Tottenham pinned their attacking hopes on his pace and directness but he was largely ineffective.

Richarlison: 7

Produced a wonder goal to chip Raya from just inside Arsenal’s half but did very little other than that.

Wilson Odobert: 5

Worked hard down the left but could not produce in attack or provide solidity in defence. Substituted.

Xavi Simons (Danso 46): 5

Pape Matar Sarr (Odobert 66): 5

Randal Kolo Muani (Bentancur 67): 5

Brennan Johnson (Kudus 78), Pedro Porro (Spence 78)
