Tottenham Hotspur came from a goal down to thump top-of-the-table Manchester City 4-1 at White Hart Lane this afternoon.
Kevin De Bruyne fired the visitors into a 25th-minute lead, but Eric Dier levelled up in fine fashion just before the break to set the tone for the second half.
There, Toby Alderweireld added a second and Harry Kane broke an eight-match goalless spell by prodding home a third, before Erik Lamela completed the second-half rout for dismal City.

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR
Goal
Hugo Lloris: Simply put, Spurs would not have won without his interventions, having pulled off excellent saves to keep out Sterling, Kolarov and Navas in both halves. Fine display. (8/10)
Defence
Kyle Walker: Inexplicably played the ball straight to Toure, who ran half the length of the field to set up De Bruyne for the opener. The right-back also struggled with the trickery of Sterling at times. (4/10)
Toby Alderweireld: Secured Spurs' second of the afternoon with a towering header and was cool and calm at the back as he kept Aguero quiet for the most part. (7/10)
Jan Vertonghen: Continued to look a hit beside his Belgian counterpart as he and Alderweireld dealt with Aguero. (7/10)
Ben Davies: Struggled in both halves, against both De Bruyne and Navas, and seldom got forward. (5/10)
Midfield
Eric Dier: Rifled Spurs back on level terms with an excellent equaliser, having found himself over-run in midfield throughout the first half. Good and bad moments overall. (6/10)
Dele Alli: Pochettino claimed that he was not ready for an England call-up during the week, and the young midfielder proved him right this afternoon. (5/10)
Erik Lamela: Superb work-rate throughout and picked up a deserved goal for his labours by adding a fourth late on after toying with Caballero and Demichelis. (6/10)
Christian Eriksen: First game back after injury and struggled in truth, but did play a huge role in the third goal when his free kick came back off the crossbar before Kane fired home. (5/10)
Son Heung-min: Was the hero in last week's 1-0 win over Crystal Palace but was nowhere near as influential today, and stole a goal from Chadli after tapping home his header - which was going in - before being flagged offside. (5/10)
Attack
Harry Kane: Superb work-rate as ever and his never-say-die attitude won the free kick which led to the second goal. Then the out-of-form striker found himself well placed to fire home the third and end an eight-game barren spell. (7/10)
Substitutes
Nacer Chadli: Strong cameo and unlucky not to score when the offside Son tapped home his goal-bound header. (6/10)
Clinton N'Jie: Proved that Spurs have quality off the bench with a fine cameo as he set up Lamela for the fourth. (7/10)
MANCHESTER CITY
Goal
Willy Caballero: Preferred to Joe Hart and pulled off a good save to keep out Son just before the equaliser, but any credit that earned him was wiped out by his mistake for the second goal. (5/10)
Defence
Bacary Sagna: Did not see much defensive action in either half as much of Spurs' attack came down Kolarov's side, but the right-back should have got forward much more when his side were behind. (5/10)
Martin Demichelis: Looked shaky at times and conceded the silly free kick which led to Spurs' third and, arguably, killer goal. Vincent Kompany was badly missed once again. (4/10)
Nicolas Otamendi: Superb in the first half, barring a minor blip which saw Kane almost score, but was nowhere near as dominant after the break. (6/10)
Aleksandar Kolarov: Could, and should, have put City 2-0 up after missing a glorious chance toward the end of the first half. It cost the Sky Blues big time. (4/10)
Midfield
Fernando: Was far too easily beaten by Alderweireld for the second goal and he became less and less of an influence in front of City's defence as time dragged on. (4/10)
Fernandinho: Produced some crucial interventions to thwart Spurs' counter attacks and overall read the game brilliantly, as he so often does. (6/10)
Yaya Toure: Started in a number 10 role but struggled to exert much influence, but did come up with a good assist for the opener. Withdrawn on 55 minutes with a suspected injury. (5/10)
Raheem Sterling: Some good moments but, at £49m, he should be far more involved for City than he has been in their last two Premier League outings. Almost non-existent in the second half, barring a shot that he pulled wide. (5/10)
Kevin De Bruyne: Lively early on, scoring an excellent goal - his third in as many games - but was culpable for Spurs' equaliser, and his head dropped completely after the break. (6/10)
Attack
Sergio Aguero: Pellegrini backed him to hit top form prior to kickoff, but the Argentine, barring one or two good moments, still looks nowhere near the Aguero that City need right now. (4/10)
Substitutes
Jesus Navas: Looked lively after replacing Toure and was unlucky not to make it 3-2 when Lloris pulled off a superb save to tip his shot over. (6/10)
Samir Nasri: First game back following an injury and had very little impact. (4/10)
