Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta hailed a "special day" after his side dominated local rivals Spurs in the North London derby.
His side gave backing to a bold pre-match prediction from ex-Arsenal defender Gael Clichy that Arteta "could be the next Arsene Wenger".
The Gunners ran riot with first-half strikes from Emile Smith-Rowe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bukayo Saka, while Spurs replied through Son Heung-min.
"Today is one example of what we can do," said Arteta, 39. "It's a special day."
He added: "This win is for the fans. They were there when we needed their support and now we are creating that connection with the supporters.
