Arsenal won 'like a Mourinho team' - Walcott on the north London derby

It was not pretty, but Arsenal got the job done against Tottenham to ensure they did not lose any more early ground in the Premier League title race.

Gabriel scored their winner, from yet another set-piece, but it was the Gunners' defensive determination and organisation that really impressed their former forward Theo Walcott, who was watching the game for Match of the Day 2.

Arsenal had an average of only 36.3% of possession over the 90 minutes, but that fell from 38.1% before they scored in the 64th minute, to only 32.2% after they went 1-0 up.
