Eze Fires Three But Wanted Four: Former Super Eagles Target Drops Ruthless Verdict After Hat-Trick Against Spurs

Eberechi Eze Lit Up North London With A Performance That Will Be Remembered For Years. But In True Elite-Mindset Fashion, The Former Super Eagles Prospect Walked Off The Pitch With A Hammering Hat-Trick… And Still Wanted More.

Arsenal’s 4-1 Victory Over Tottenham Was Dominant, Decisive, And Deliciously Dramatic — And Eze Was The Unquestioned Star Of The Night.

Eze Shines… Then Demands Higher Standards

Eze opened the scoring just before halftime, connecting beautifully with a slick Declan Rice pass. Seconds after the break, he doubled the lead with a composed finish that sent the away end into chaos.

Then, in the 76th minute, he smashed in his third — a powerful strike that sealed the derby in red and white.

But after the match? Eze’s verdict was ruthless.

“I probably should have scored four, to be honest. It is important to be relentless.”

A hat-trick hero… disappointed he didn’t take home the match ball and a fourth goal. That hunger is the mark of a future superstar.

“A Special Day” — Eze Reflects

Speaking to Premier League media, Eze admitted the moment felt larger than anything he had imagined.

“I don’t think I’ve ever dreamt of doing that. It is more special than that. It is a special day.”

Eze also praised the squad’s work ethic:

“We are focused on ourselves and putting in the work every day… We will keep working, keep pushing, and keep believing.”

Arsenal fans, take a bow. Your No. 10 is cooking.

Spurs Regret Missing Out

Tottenham once wanted Eze.
Eze chose Arsenal.
Sunday evening showed exactly why that decision stings for the blue side of North London.

He had more shots, more touches in the opposition box, and more influence than any other player on the pitch — completely overwhelming Spurs’ defence.

Mikel Arteta’s tactical adjustments were spot on, and Eze’s explosive performance cemented him as a central figure in Arsenal’s title push.

The Bigger Picture

At just 24, Eze is shaping up to be one of the Premier League’s most electric players. His mindset — hat-trick, but still demanding more — screams championship mentality.

If Arsenal are truly gunning for the 2025–26 title, Eze is going to be one of the key weapons driving that charge.
