Premier League plotlines: Is there really a North London power shift?

Our writers assess the weekend’s Premier League talking points.

The Arsenal manager has dismissed claims that the dominant club in that part of the capital is now Tottenham, claiming one season does not outweigh the previous 20. He has a point, but there is a trend emerging in terms of the direction of the two clubs. Or rather, Tottenham appear to have a sense of where they are heading while Arsenal are rudderless right now.
