What has happened to Tottenham? Before kick-off the sense was that it would be so very Spursy for them to blow this one. By the time it was over, though, they were daring to dream after punishing a nightmarish defensive display from Calvin Bassey and returning to the Premier League’s summit with a display that left an unambitious Fulham grateful it only finished 2-0.
Ange Postecoglou can do no wrong at the moment. Spurs are a team transformed under the Australian and, setting aside concerns over lack of depth, it may not be long before they are viewed as genuine title challengers. Respectful opponents will see the sparkling goalscoring form of James Maddison and Son Heung-min, plus the confident defending of Micky van de Ven, and know they will be in for a horrible test when they face Postecoglou’s Spurs.
