This is what Arsenal fans sang about Tottenham in FA Cup win at the Emirates Stadium
Arsenal fans taunted rivals Tottenham during their FA Cup win over Wigan Athletic on Sunday.
Tottenham were knocked out of the FA Cup at the third round stage by Aston Villa, but Arsenal can look forward to a fifth round tie after thumping League One strugglers Wigan 4-0.
Mikel Arteta’s team scored four goals in 16 first-half minutes through Noni Madueke, Gabriel Martinelli, a Jack Hunt own goal, and Gabriel Jesus.
On 22 February, Arsenal travel to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to face Tottenham in the Premier League in interim boss Igor Tudor‘s first game in charge.
But before that North London Derby, Arsenal fans poked fun at Tottenham when their side put Wigan to the sword at Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal fans mock Tottenham ahead of North London Derby
Tottenham face a daunting test on Sunday as they host top-of-the-table Arsenal, as they bid to win only their third league game in 18 matches.
The last time these two teams met, former head coach Thomas Frank oversaw a 4-1 defeat at Arsenal on 23 November as Spurs were thoroughly outclassed.
Frank fielded a very defensive side in that game, but they were still ripped apart by a ruthless Gunners outfit. And against Wigan, Arsenal fans sang: “Are you Tottenham in disguise?”
When Tottenham lost to Arsenal earlier this season, the Gunners went 3-0 up before Richarlison scored a stunning long-range effort to reduce their arrears.
But Eberechi Eze then completed his hat-trick to restore their three-goal cushion. Ahead of this next match, Tottenham will be without captain Cristian Romero due to suspension.
This is a big test for Tottenham and new boss Tudor.

Igor Tudor faces uphill struggle at Tottenham
Tudor was sworn in as Tottenham’s new interim boss until the end of the season on Saturday, with the former Juventus boss tasked with keeping Spurs in the Premier League.
They currently sit 16th in the table, just five points above the relegation zone, and they have a raft of injuries to deal with.
Tudor cannot call upon the likes of James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, and Mohammed Kudus – all of whom would greatly enhance Tottenham’s attack.
Plus, midfielder Lucas Bergvall and Rodrigo Bentancur are also out injured, as are defenders Ben Davies and Pedro Porro.
Incidentally, some Tottenham fans are not too enamoured with Tudor’s appointment, especially after he was sacked by Juventus after just seven months in 2025.
As this Sofascore graphic shows, his time at Juve was far from impressive, nor is his record of 12 jobs in 11 years.
If Tudor doesn’t pick up some results quickly, Tottenham really could go down, which would be catastrophic for the club.
