After the disappointing defeat to Manchester United on Saturday afternoon, Tottenham Hotspur got back on the proverbial horse in Wednesday’s midweek clash with Brighton and Hove Albion and although it wasn’t the greatest of games, it was a dominant enough performance to see us pick up all three points following goals from Cristian Romero and Harry Kane to give us a 2-0 victory at the Amex Stadium – whilst also denying the home side a single shot on target.
On paper, Brighton were always going to be tough but it always should’ve been a Spurs win, however, Sunday’s fixture against the bubble blowing West Ham United will be a different kettle of fish.
David Moyes’ side are again having an unexpectedly good season sat in sixth place in the table, level on points with us but we do, of course, have a game in hand on them. Hopefully in an effort to come back from a one goal deficit against Sevilla – well putting it bluntly – they’ll be cream crackered and we can take full advantage of that given their current injury problems.
But again, if we’ve learnt one thing about Spurs this year – it’s that we are Spurs and the only guarantee occurs at the final whistle.
