Gary Neville praises Arsenal star after north London derby win

Manchester United legend Gary Neville has hailed the performance of Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres following the 4-1 Premier League over Tottenham Hotspur.

The Gunners returned to winning ways in the English top-flight with a dominating display against Spurs on the road. Gyokeres was adjudged the man of the match after a fantastic brace.

Speaking after the game, Neville said that the Swede had his best game in the Gunners shirt and deserved the man of the match accolade for his display.

He said: "He’s had one of his best games, Gyokeres, by the way, played like a proper centre-forward here today.

"He scored his goal, he’s popped things off and been a nuisance.

"He’s held it up. Player of the Match goes to Gyokeres. It’s the best I’ve seen him in a big game."

Gyokeres has now netted 10 goals in the Premier League campaign. Across all competitions, he has scored 15 for the north London heavyweights.
