Crystal Palace 1-0 Tottenham Hotspur: Jean-Philippe Mateta scores crucial winner

By Total Football News

Jean-Philippe Mateta’s first-half strike clinched Crystal Palace’s first Premier League win of the season as they edged lacklustre Tottenham.

After being reinstated to the starting line-up, the Frenchman broke the deadlock after Spurs defender Micky van de Ven was easily dispossessed deep in his own half and, following a scramble in the box, Mateta powered home his second goal of the season.

Ange Postecoglou’s side responded well after falling behind

By Total Football News

A spectacular second half-display saw Tottenham run out dominant Premier League winners over local rivals West Ham in north London.

Hammers winger Mohammed Kudus turned in the opening goal of the game from a Jarrod Bowen cross in the 18th minute having missed a similar chance moments earlier.

Midfielder Dejan Kulusevski got Spurs a deserved equaliser which squeezed in after hitting both posts in the 36th minute.

But with Spurs

    Tottenham considered Toney move before signing Solanke – Postecoglou

    By Total Football News

    Ange Postecoglou says Tottenham considered signing Ivan Toney before Dominic Solanke and fans should not “rush to judgement” on the £65m striker.

    Solanke, 27, has yet to score for Spurs in his three appearances this season since joining from Bournemouth in August.

    Fellow England striker Toney eventually moved to Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahli from Brentford for £40m on deadline day.

    Spurs have won just one of their four Premier League

    Tottenham 0-1 Arsenal: Gunners won ‘like a Mourinho team’

    By Total Football News

    While Arsenal were still solid without Rice at the heart of their midfield, they did miss Odegaard’s creative nous and calmness on the ball.

    “It’s hard to compare him and Trossard, because they are very different players,” Walcott explained.

    “Trossard, for me, is probably the best finisher at the club – but Odegaard is the conductor, the one who gets everything working and gets everyone in the team working at

    Tottenham 0-1 Arsenal: Gabriel & Gunners expose Spurs’ set-piece flaws

    By Total Football News

    Spurs must have relished the arrival of Arsenal’s teamsheet without the names of Odegaard and Rice, but a lively start soon faded in an occasionally ill-tempered scrap, including an ugly first-half flare-up as players from both sides clashed following Jurien Timber’s challenge on Pedro Porro.

    An expected Spurs response to Gabriel’s goal never materialised and keeper Raya was able to enjoy a relatively untroubled existence in the second half.

    Tottenham pair Micky van de Ven and Dominic Solanke are expected to be available after overcoming respective knee and ankle injuries.

    Yves Bissouma is a doubt after suffering a groin problem on international duty for Mali, while Richarlison remains out.

    Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard will have further tests to determine the extent of his ankle problem but he was not ruled out for this weekend by manager Mikel Arteta on

    By Total Football News

    The most obvious candidate to come into midfield is Jorginho.

    Last season, the Italy midfielder played more successful passes into the final third per 90 minutes than any other Arsenal player (average 23.9), and his ability to play accurate passes over the top could be an asset against Tottenham’s high line.

    Leandro Trossard could fill Odegaard’s role behind Kai Havertz, which may allow Raheem Sterling to make his debut as

    Arsenal will wear their away kit in Sunday’s north London derby for the first time in 38 years after their red-and-white home shirt was deemed to clash with Tottenham’s colours.

    The Gunners will don their black away strip at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after referees’ body Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) said their home shirt “features too much white”.

    Arsenal also said wearing their home shirt with red shorts and
