Tottenham signed off their final North London derby at White Hart Lane with a commanding 2-0 win over Arsenal. It was Dele Alli and Harry Kane who got the goals for the Lilywhites and guaranteed that they would finish this season above Arsenal, thus cancelling St. Totteringham’s day.
The win also kept the pressure up on Chelsea as the gap was reduced to just four points with just four games to go. Tottenham’s ninth Premier League win in a row sets the scene for a brilliant finish till the end of the season and Chelsea will have to ensure there are no slip ups if they are to win the league.
Twitter was lit up with a lot of great updates from happy Spurs fans and some upset Gunner supporters and we share some of the best.

Tottenham are a club on the up, Arsenal are falling behind. Our fans are mugs talking about history. Spurs are simply better than us.

It is clear Tottenham Hotspurs prove that last season exploits were not fluke. Kane too is not one season wonder
