Tottenham Hotspur were really poor against Arsenal in the North London Derby. Spurs started the game without any intent. They were passive for large parts of the first half and gave Arsenal the time and space they needed to dictate the game. That cost Tottenham and even though the score was just 2-1, it was complete domination from Arsenal.

Good evening and welcome to The Independent’s live coverage of tonight’s north London derby in the Premier League. Tottenham travel across the capital to face Arsenal at the Emirates, with plenty more than three points on the line as the Gunners chase Liverpool and Spurs try and salvage their league campaign.
