Arteta has lauded the fans for being there when his men needed them during their poor start to the season.
The Gunners were off to a flyer on twelve minutes when youngster Emile Smith Rowe broke the deadlock.
Gabon international Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang doubled the hosts’ advantage on the 27th minute before Bukayo Saka swiftly took Arsenal clear in a frantic first half.
Spurs were much better after the break as Heung-Min Son got a goal on 79 minutes but that was not enough to put up a comeback.
"This win is for the fans. They were there when we needed their support. We started really strongly and were determined. In the second half we had to do what we had to do,” Arteta told the media after the game.
The Spaniard was further asked about what he liked the most in Arsenal’s victory over Nuno Espirito Santo’s men, he added: "The determination, the conviction and connection with our people.
"We just need to keep everyone healthy because we are going to need everyone. It was the exact mix we needed with the senior players and then the youth.
“It was a special day. it is one example of what we want to do. But we have to be consistent."
