Tottenham Hotspur clinched all three points in just their second game back in the Premier League.
Jose Mourinho’s side drew to Manchester United on Friday but picked up the victory against local rivals West Ham last night. It means they have moved to within one point of the top five.
Visiting midfielder Tomas Soucek handed Spurs the lead just after the half-hour mark after a corner deflected in off his leg before Harry Kane doubled the advantage eight minutes from time after latching onto Heung-min Son’s sublime defence-splitting pass.
Who was your MOTM vs West Ham?
Giovani Lo Celso
Eric Dier
Harry Kane

No fans were in attendance once again, but clearly many tuned in from their homes and the performance from Giovani Lo Celso, who picked up his first assist of the season, had the Spurs faithful drooling.
Per SofaScore, the Argentine playmaker racked up 117 touches as well three key passes, three successful dribbles and an 88% passing success rate. He clearly ran the show.
Which is why one supporter compared the £36m-rated midfielder to Luka Modric whilst others have talked him up to be their Man of the Match.
Here’s how the rest of the fanbase have reacted…
Aurier, Dier and Davies were solid in the back. Le Celso reminds me of Modric. Lamela and Bergwijn made good impressions and Kane scored!!
Concerned that Ndombele still isn't getting minutes.#coys #thfc— Ian Ayers (@ayers79) June 23, 2020
Lucas and Lo Celso look class. Son looks sloppy. #TOTWHU #coys #thfc
