"They deserve to be title contenders. "It's a shame because it's only a game of football at the end of the day," Ramsdale shrugged. And it's becoming increasingly hard to dispute that Arsenal are the best team in the country, having surged into the best position they've been in all season in their bid for a first league title since the unbeaten "Invincibles" of 2003-2004.

But Ramsdale stuck out a foot that time to parry his low shot across goal. But he was beaten again shortly afterward when a perfectly struck volley from Partey from outside crashed against the post. Tottenham improved after the break but Aaron Ramsdale made a number of saves to keep the hosts at bay and strengthen the belief that this could be a special season for Arsenal. Newcastle and Man United are both nine points behind while Tottenham is now 14 points back in fifth place, having played a game more than Arsenal. It was Lloris' first own-goal in 354 career Premier League games. The last time Arsenal won the Premier League in the 2003-04 season, the unbeaten “Invincibles” clinched the title at Tottenham's former White Hart Lane stadium — a feat Gunners fans are more than happy to remind Spurs supporters of during their often heated derbies.

Aaron Ramsdale kicked by fan: Fiery EPL clash ends with 'sour taste ... (7NEWS.com.au)

Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale says an attempted post-match attack by a Tottenham fan has left a “sour taste” after his side's north London derby win.

We will be continuing to work with the authorities to demand that players and staff are better protected in their place of work.” “Then a fan tried to jump over and give me a little punch on the back. I think that might have spurred me on a little bit.” “Players have a right to be safe in their place of work. When a player is attacked we expect the laws and regulations that are in place to protect them to be properly enforced. Speaking after the game, Ramsdale said it was a “shame”.

It leaves a sour taste but I’m sure we’ll enjoy it when we go back to the dressing room.” This was Arsenal's first win at the new stadium that opened in 2019 and while there is still much work for Mikel Arteta's side to do before ending that 19-year title drought, it certainly brings them a bit closer — especially after second-place Manchester City lost Saturday’s derby against Manchester United. Only two good saves from Lloris and the woodwork prevented Arsenal from taking an even bigger lead, with Thomas Partey smashing a long-distance volley against the post in the 24th.

'Utterly disgusting': Calls for life ban in EPL (NEWS.com.au)

There were shocking scenes after Arsenal beat bitter rivals Tottenham 2-0 in the North London Derby.

Ramsdale was bickering with Richarlison at the time. Ugly scenes after the whistle. If the FA have any backbone they will throw the book at the club for the lack of protection. Odegaard led the team to the away fans after it all kicked off, but Arteta had to drag Xhaka back by the neck.— Sam Dean (@SamJDean) [January 15, 2023] No footballer at any level let alone the Premier League should be attacked. [pic.twitter.com/gHf8H9nUif] [January 15, 2023] [pic.twitter.com/rYr0oahlXL] [January 15, 2023] Absolutely scandalous a Spurs fan from the home end kicked Arsenal keeper Aaron Ramsdale. It looked like a fan might have kicked Aaron Ramsdale in the back at the end there. [#OptusSport] [pic.twitter.com/vAtKqpCtnV] [January 15, 2023] That prompted a steward to lead Ramsdale away to the edge of the pitch before a fan in the Spurs section disgracefully kicked the England goalie.
