Sol Campbell off the pitch injured 2001 FA Cup Semi Final, then we scored, then recruited him. Lush.

The 4-2 in Emerys first season is one of few memorable games in the last few years.
What a false dawn that turned out to be! Really looked like we had something, Torreira looked great, Auba scoring a wonder goal, passion, free flowing attacking.

Nothing really compares to the first 5-2. Sagna's "eff off" header, Walcott's ecstasy of his second half redemption, the negative spiral. It had everything.

Spurs 5-1 Arsenal and we went on to beat Chelsea in the final with a goal off Woodgates face. Bendtner once again acting the k nob.

Kane’s Late show to bring us back from 1-0 down at the lane, that header woof

Even though we’ve had a fair few wins to choose from, the 4-4 the Emirates always leaps to mind for me. At a time when Arsenal were better but we were starting to catch up with them, and during the game it felt like we were dead and buried. The game kind of had a bit of everything.

2-0 at the penultimate lane was my favourite. Place was bouncing and Arsenal didn’t put up any fight whatsoever - one of the most dominant 2-0s I’ve ever seen. Made Wanyama look like a prime Yaya.

A couple of 4-4 draws in the 1960s were right up there as some of the best derby games. Also the 5-0 win over Arsenal in the 1980s.

Favourite memory was the 5-4 win at WHL. Special mention to the 3-0 when van Persie and Fabregas scored in like a minute. The 4-2 win gave me the most range of emotions, and was the most action-packed, so that was obviously enjoyable too.

Worst memories. Losing to them 3-2 at The Emirates when Chamakh and Nasri put us 2-0 up. The 2-0 in 16/17 that confirmed they would finish ahead of us for the first time in 21 years or whatever it was. The 2-1 loss when Danny Rose scored the overrated 'screamer' (Almunia should have done so much better there).

Last season's loss to them irked me as well because of how we lost the game and the fact Mourinho, who is an odious human being, was the one that was in charge of them.

Unfortunately, there's been worse memories in recent years than positive ones.

in your debut at that young age though, in a game as big as that. ridiculous attempt let alone goal. abject keeping for sure though.

5-1 league cup semi final. Best atmosphere I have ever witnessed at the Lane. A time where we didn’t beat Arsenal often and to smash them to pieces was incredible. Plus we got into the final. Everyone walking down Seven sisters road singing.

2-1 FA Cup semi 01
1-3 at WHL 2007
1-4 at WHL in the league cup 2010
The first 5-2 leading to a 13 point capitulation
4-2 in Emery’s first season

Worst memories are probably the 4-4 in 08 and losing 3-2 in 2010, both after having 2 goal leads

From his point of view, and yours, I get it. It was obviously a sweet connection from that far out.

But Almunia flapped at the set piece, and when he pushed it out, as Rose hit it, his positioning was all wrong and didn't react until very late.

I'm probably being salty tbh, but I will always view that as horrible goalkeeping.

I enjoyed the second 5-2 as well actually, because Adebayor scored, and then got sent off giving us a huge boost in winning the game.

Rocky Rocastles last minute winner in the 87 semi final was pretty special. Clive Allen won Spurs the first leg 1-0, then put Spurs 1 up in the second. We fought back to take the game to a replay where Clive Allen put Spurs 1 up (bit of a theme) which it remained until the 82nd minute. Ian Allison equalised, and then, as the clock ticked past 90, David Rocastle was on hand to put Arsenal in the lead of the tie for the first time over 3 matches.

We went on to beat Liverpool in the final, the first trophy of my life as an Arsenal fan

So, so many NLD's are memorable for various reasons.

By far the best derby matches in the prem. Very few are borefests.

Definitely the best derby in the prem!

5-1 League cup semi final
Harry Kane Vs Arsenal (do you remember the pirate guy saying who is Harry Kane )

Lauren penalty, a daisy cutter, great afternoon at Highbury

Best: Gazza goal in 91, Rose goal in 2010

Worst: losing 5-2 the second time. The first game we were just rubbish, the second time we were better until Ade’s moment of madness

Oh the 3-2 in 2010, how could I forget that

Also, not necessarily a great moment but a great game was the 3-3 in 2011. What an exciting game that was !

The Kane goal in 2016, with the back heel from Dele an absolute screamer, probably his best
