"He has scored five goals in the last two games against Tottenham, which is extremely difficult to do, but I could see that he wanted to prove something. He was upset, even with me, because I didn't play him in the other day from the beginning and some of the decisions that I made. And I start to understand how we're going to get the best out of him now."
"He had that belief and I'm really happy with him. He's really trying to mould and adapt into what we want from him. You just have to look at his face and the way he was in the dressing room and with that big smile and his eyes are just expressing everything that you need to. He came here for a reason and we need those moments from these players."

Eze responded by scoring five goals across two North London derbies, registering a hat-trick in the first meeting and a brace in the second.

Those goal-scoring moments reinforced the purpose of his transfer and provided the attacking spark the club needed.
