Tottenham 1-4 Arsenal: Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyokeres at the double as Gunners go five points clear of Man City

Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyokeres were both at the double for Arsenal as they tormented Tottenham in a 4-1 win in the North London derby.

The win moves the Gunners five points clear of Manchester City, who have a game in-hand, in a performance full of intent and aggression following their 2-2 draw with Wolves in midweek.

Gary Neville said: "This result is just what Mikel Arteta would have wanted to quieten down the noise after those last few results."

Arsenal won the first meeting this season 4-1 with Eze scoring three of the four and he saved his best for Spurs again, scoring the opener when hooking home from close range. It was his first goal since that famous treble in November.

Arsenal had full control but allowed Spurs back in almost instantly as 24 seconds after the restart Declan Rice was caught in possession which allowed Randal Kolo Muani to nip in and finish powerfully.

Gyokeres restored Arsenal's lead - capping a complete performance from the striker - before Eze popped up again to sweep home a rebound to make it 3-1.

Spurs did think they had levelled the game at 2-2 before Eze's second when Kolo Muani fired home but it was chalked off by referee Peter Bankes for a push on Gabriel, a decision that wasn't overturned by VAR.

With Arsenal cruising to three points, Gyokeres put extra gloss on the win during injury time, netting his second.

The away fans taunted the Spurs fans with chants of "going down, going down" and "we'll never play you again" as their rivals remain just four points off the relegation zone.

'Arsenal in a different league to Spurs - and could be next season!'

Sky Sports' Jamie Redknapp:

"They were magnificent today. You just felt there was control about this Arsenal side.

"It was a complete mismatch. They were in different leagues, Arsenal were so classy. They were so much better than Tottenham, it was like two different leagues.

"If Tottenham aren't careful, they might be in a different league. They cannot keep performing like this.

"Gyokeres led the line, Eze was wonderful. It was a brilliant performance. Arsenal were fantastic, too good for Tottenham."

Van de Ven: Arsenal were the better team

Tottenham defender Micky van de Ven to Sky Sports:

"I think Arsenal overall was the better team. The first half we were still in the game, it was 1-1. Two minutes after half-time, they scored to make it 2-1 and after that it was really difficult.

"I think maybe sometimes in the press we could have done a bit better. We pressed them quite high but Arsenal came out of it a few times and it's difficult to come back quick.

"Today they were just the better team, they created way more than us."
