London ¨C Mikel Arteta said Eberechi Eze¡¯s brilliant hat trick in Arsenal¡¯s 4-1 demolition of Tottenham on Sunday was just reward for the midfielder¡¯s ¡°exceptional¡± commitment to improve.

The 27-year-old midfielder tore Tottenham to shreds with clinical finishes in the 41st, 46th and 76th minutes at Emirates Stadium.
