I’ve only been half watching this as I’m not very well today - how has it been overall? Fans seem to be enjoying themselves in the closing moments

Much better. Maybe I should go into all of our matches with a suffocating sense of dread because I seem to get the opposite game I'm expecting every time.

Also, today I learned they mark 10 yards out from the corner spot along the lines. I don't know if all grounds do that but it's the first time I've noticed it.

LOL. We've finished this off like a proper South American side.
This. We did a great job with that, I loved watching it.

A significantly better all round performance but we're far from out of the woods yet. There were large parts of the game that were very hairy before the superb final 10.

On another day we would’ve won that by 4 or 5. Kane just needs his first goal now. Much better. No surprises considering we reverted to 4-2-3-1 and dropped Dele.

Son once again showing he’s our most important player. I thought we’d get thrashed, but there were clear improvement out there today.

Kane not yet his lethal self, but from a tactical standpoint he was absolutely fantastic. He made the whole team tick, and created lo-o-ots of space for Sonny.
Plus, he did at least two outrageous plays with the ball.
Tacticaly, every player was good today. The Skipp+Hojbjerg tandem should never be broken.
All in all, a good day for Nuno Espirito Santo. Credit where its due.

Really enjoyed that in the end. Not perfect, but I found myself fully supporting what I was seeing. Should have at the very least been 3-1 too.

One of the most encouraging things was also not only not seeing Dele start, but Lo Celso and Gil coming off the bench instead of him too.

From the SC massive?
From the fanbase in general I'd guess. There were a lot of empty seats around the ground today and I'd struggle to work up the desire to travel up to the ground given the quality of football we've seen thus far.

Well done Spurs and Nuno, was expecting more dour football but after the first 10 mins we dominated that. Sonny was on it from start to finish, exceptional today. Also excellent from Romero and Emerson.

Son unplayable today. Romero and Emerson both outstanding, great to have a rb who can beat a man and put a cross in. Hojberg very very good in the 8 role. Ndombele Harding work but not enough quality on the ball. Lo celso looked very good when he came on. Great performance, Hard working battle performance with flashes of brilliance in attack. That team but rotating ndombele and lo celso, and Gil and Moura each week please. Wasting a lot of good chances, another day we could have had 5 or 6
