The likes of Thierry Henry, Robin van Persie, Harry Kane, and Robbie Keane have been heavily involved in this generation’s North London derbies. But there can be only one top scorer in the match between two of London biggest clubs.
The answer is Harry Kane, the Tottenham Hotspur talisman who is quite arguably a living legend if his lack of team trophies is ignored. The 28-year-old striker has 11 goals. Bobby Minter has scored 10 against the Gunners, while Bobby Smith has 10 goals to his name in the NLD.
As for Arsenal, the record is tied between three players. One of the three is iconic striker Emmanuel Adebayor who went on to be hated by the Arsenal faithful after his antics playing for Manchester City against the North Londoners.

Along with Adebayor, Robert Pires and Alan Sunderland have 8 goals against Spurs to their name as well. Adebayor actually has 10 goals in the North London derby considering he also scored 2 goals during his time as a Spurs player.
He was certainly a controversial player, to say the least. Harry Kane, however, can add to his tally in the coming months. He failed to do so in the latest edition of the NLD this weekend as Arsenal ran out 3-1 winners on the day.
Bukayo Saka, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, and Emile Smith Rowe were on target as Spurs cruised to an easy win. Son Heung-min scored the consolation goal but that was it from Spurs. Kane, however, can actually move to Manchester City next summer or even in January, so this may well have been his last North London derby.
