Arsenal made an emphatic statement in the Premier League title race as they eased their recent jitters with a 4-1 rout of Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday restoring their five-point lead, Reuters reported. 

After successive draws had raised doubts, two goals each from Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyokeres gave Arsenal their biggest league win at Tottenham since a 5-0 victory in 1978.

"We showed what we are made of, but we have to show it again and again," Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said, according to Reuters.
