(a) Tottenham Hotspur

Spurs romped to a convincing 5-0 win over the visiting Swans

Spurs thrashed a hapless Swansea 5-0 at the White Hart Lane, with a superb goal from Son and braces for Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen.

The Londoners were clinical, authoritative and ran riot at the Swansea defence, who had no clue of how to cope with the barrage of attacks that was directed at them. They sat deep and tried to shield the goal but Pochettino’s men had other plans.

With just one win in the previous 10 games, this was a wake-up call for Spurs and on the evidence of it, they heard it loud and clear.

Kane, Eriksen and the excellent Son dominated in attack while Dier and Walker also joined in comfortably. The Welshmen turned out to be meek opponents and only a shadow of the side that had beaten Palace in a thriller just a week ago.


(b) Arsenal

For the second week in a row, Arsenal make our list for a wonderful team performance at the home of the Hammers.

The Gunners assailed West Ham 5-1, powered by an Alexis Sanchez hat-trick and goals from Oxlade-Chamberlain and Mesut Ozil to boot.

Arsene Wenger’s side proved too hot to handle for West Ham, whose only consolation goal was scored by Andy Carroll via a well-struck header.

Randolph made a couple of excellent saves and blocks but Sanchez put in a man-of-the-match display (again, yes!) to snatch and seal the incentive in favour of the visitors.

Honourable mentions: Chelsea, Bournemouth
