Wow. What a weekend in the Premier League. Drama everywhere you looked. And there's still more to come, with Crystal Palace hosting Brighton on Monday.

You can read Phil McNulty's match report on a great day for Arsenal here.

I'm heading to the chippy for my tea. Take care.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has staked his Arsenal future on a long-term plan but admits he will not get quick results and has called for patience.

But there was evidence for optimism here despite those three opening league defeats.

The Gunners' latest win was based on the brilliance and exuberance of Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe and Martin Odegaard, aged 20, 21 and 22 respectively.

Nuno has watched his side concede three goals in three successive league games, a worrying sign for a manager renowned for establishing a solid defensive platform.

The manager himself looked a beaten man at times, a motionless presence as the full scale of Spurs' capitulation unfolded in front of him.

The second half introduction of Oliver Skipp and Emerson Royal for Dele Alli and Japhet Tanganga - and presumably some very harsh words from Nuno and the simple fact that Spurs could not get any worse - prompted an improvement of sorts after the break.

It was all far too little too late and Spurs did not deserve anything from this performance.

Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham boss Nuno Espirito Santo, speaking to BBC MOTD: "We were not good enough and Arsenal did a good game. It's always hard when you concede early in a game and we were not able to control the match.

"We didn't start well and the first half was very bad.

"Against Chelsea we played well in the first half, but today was the other way around. We were not able to execute it [game-plan] in the right way.

"Credit to Arsenal because they were strong, aggressive and stronger. What I focus on is making the right decisions.

"We learn in every moment. We are trying to build. There are a lot of things wrong and there are a lot of things good."

Tottenham manager Nuno Espirito Santo speaking to Sky Sports: "The performance was not good. The game plan was not good. The decisions were not good. So it was not a good day for us. Definitely not a good day.

"I'm going to be honest. When you have a game plan you have to make the right decisions in terms of who you want to put on the pitch to develop that game plan. I take responsibility because the decisions were not right according to the game plan. I won't name individuals but the game plan was not right according to the players who were on the pitch.

"We were not aggressive enough to control the dynamic of Arsenal in midfield. We suffered when we wanted to go in front and we allowed Arsenal to always come to us. By saying that, bad decisions."

On whether Harry Kane should have had a penalty for a foul by Granit Xhaka: "I didn't see the images. The referee and VAR are there to judge. My head is more now focused on what I have to do now."

On what he must do now: "We prepared the game, we had a good meeting, but then we were not able to do it. We were not strong enough. I'm being very honest. It is not easy to tell this. The decisions were not according to the game plan. If you want to be strong in the midfield, they were maybe not right the decisions that I made."

On a possible lack of communication: "That's another issue. I would not say they are not doing what I tell them to do. They were not able to do it. Credit to our opponent, they were better than us."

On how quickly Spurs must recover from the defeat: "Very quickly. We have to separate each game. We lost against Palace and Chelsea in different ways. I think against Chelsea we had something to build on - today again we have nothing. We must find the right direction."

On if he can turn things around: "Of course. We need good communication, believe in the players, work much harder and we must improve mentally and physically the players."

Tottenham Hotspur

Nuno Espirito Santo has arrived.

"Not a good day for us," he says. "We were not aggressive enough to control the dynamic of the Arsenal midfield."

More from the Spurs boss coming up.

Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham keeper Hugo Lloris, speaking to Sky Sports: "We lost complete control in the first half. We got smashed and then had a good reaction.

"It's frustrating and very disappointing. It's the moment to stick together and carry on. The players were ready but we lost a bit of control. We lost the balance in the middle of the pitch.

"When you concede three goals in each of the last three league games you cannot hide the problems. But we are professional. There is a long way to go. We need to stay calm."

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta speaking to BBC Sport: "I think in life you have to show gratitude. These people have stood by this club and these players. This win is for them.

"When you are trying rebuild and trying to do the right things you have to stay by your values. Now we are creating the connection with our supporters.

"We had great determination, great energy and great quality. I really enjoyed it. I see the belief the players have in what we do [in training]. They have the quality to put it into practice.

"[It is important] they make each other better. It's about raising the level in the team and training. If they all have that mentality then what happened today happens."

Arsenal

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta, speaking to Sky Sports: "This win is for the fans. They were there when we needed their support. We started really strongly and were determined. In the second half we had to do what we had to do."

Asked what he liked the most, Arta added: "The determination, the conviction and connection with our people.

"We just need to keep everyone healthy because we are going to need everyone. It was the exact mix we needed with the senior players and then the youth.

Its a special day. Today is one example of what we want to do. But we have to be consistent."

Martyn: Nuno & Levy both have to go & within the coming week - enough is enough - both are painfully out of their depth & if Spurs are to survive in the Premier League, then action is needed now

Anon: The most abject display I have ever seen in a North London Derby. 1 booking, no heart, no spine, no clue. Nuno is out of his depth. Championship quality manager, with a championship quality squad. Mr Levy, do you do returns on season tickets?

Arsenal

Arsenal midfielder Emile Smith Rowe, speaking to Sky Sports: "It's probably the best day of my life. To have my family here as well, it's a special feeling."

On Mikel Arteta's advice to the team during the tough moments: "He just tells us to keep calm. Also the fans and the players give us so much confidence as well."

Speaking to BBC Sport, he added: "The fans have done so much for us today and we want to thank them as much as we can.

"I feel like we've worked so hard. We had a tough start to the season. I feel like its going really well at the moment but we need to keep our heads own."

On the atmosphere at Emirates Stadium: "It's surreal to be honest. It's the best day of my life. To have my family here too, I'm so happy."

Dave: Where was this Arsenal at the start of the season? They need to build on this.

Arsenal

Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, speaking to Sky Sports: "It means the world to us. The fans give us everything. They push us. It's an amazing feeling, just unbelievable. It's quite easy when they [the young players] listen and are ready to learn.

"the most important thing is they improve as they play. They are doing amazing. We are doing a good run. We want to go forward and win games. We are doing well right now."

Charlie: Those calling for Nuno’s head must have the memory of a goldfish. The squad has been in decline for 2-3 years due to underinvestment, and just a few weeks ago when Nuno was hired, he was 7-8th choice because all the elite managers didn’t want to know.

Arsenal

Arsenal have recorded their 600th Premier League win, just the third side to reach this total after Chelsea (601) and Manchester United (691).

Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham only the second team in Premier League history to win their first three games of a season and then lose the next three after Everton in 1993-94, who went on to finish 17th.

This result sees Arsenal leapfrog Spurs in the table. After three matches, Spurs were top of the league and the Gunners were bottom.

It's a fully deserved win for Arsenal.

Could Tottenham's luck have been a bit better? Absolutely.

But Arsenal tore Spurs to shreds in all departments.
