• Teenage left-back impressed in 2-1 victory over Spurs
• 'I had to make sure I was winning my tackles for her'

Arsenal's Myles Lewis-Skelly has said he was determined to impress on his north London derby debut because he did not want to "look soft" in front of his grandmother.

Lewis-Skelly, 18, became Arsenal's youngest player to start against Tottenham in two decades, since Cesc Fàbregas, and the left-back turned in an eye-catching display at the Emirates to help his side secure a 2-1 comeback win.
