Over the last few years, Tottenham fans have come to expect nothing but the best from their club and when they take to the pitch, they are always wanting three points. Back in 2017 when Chelsea came to White Hart Lane that was no different, and the supporters have been looking back on their 2-0 win after Spurs Web tweeted the goals from the win.
Never forget this almost identical brace from Dele – what a night at the Lane, and what a moment for Dele himself. #COYS #THFC pic.twitter.com/zJXqlbld9z

Chelsea may have beaten Tottenham to the Premier League title in the 2016/17 season, but the Lilywhites overcame the Blues 2-0 in the last ever meeting between the sides at White Hart Lane, courtesy of two fantastic back-post headers from Dele Alli.
It’s served the fans both a reminder of what Dele used to be able to do when he was in fine form and also how good Christian Eriksen was when he was playing with confidence, whipping in fantastic balls for the likes of Dele and Harry Kane to get on the end of, and the supporters would love to see that now.
Should Mauricio Pochettino stick with Dele Alli?
Yes
No

Never forget when Eriksen could cross

Last time Eriksen would put in a decent ball, last time Dele was on top form and the last time we had consistency. Downhill, mostly, since.

What a season and that win was probably the highlight of it, barring The Lane Finale

The Lilywhites couldn’t get enough of their team from that 2016/17 season, and whilst things might not be going so well now, they’ll always have those memories.
