Playing with a proper defence today. Not a perfect one but a proper one.

Loving the Kane, Eriksen, Son, Lamela dynamic, we need some consistency with this attacking formation going forward.

This has been by far the best performance by at least 2 years
The press is back ?

Aurier has been fantastic, and Lamela is crucial for our pressing system I wish more could see that

Alderweireld's passing is just something else, he must have a 90% success rate on those 50-60 yard diagonals.

Sharp forward passes from the middle from both Winks and Sissoko (who knew), precise long balls from the back and quality crosses from the full backs. When all 3 of those are working it’s hard to stop. Kane will want to get in on this so bad, hope we can run up a few more.

What better way to see if he still has legs than now. We're 4-0 up and Winks got a yellow card. We need to see if he's going to able to help us for the rest of the season.
Winksy needs to build up his confidence. Victor can play in the Captial 1 cup

Great 1st half, now let’s succeed where England failed and keep up the tempo in the 2nd half. Long time since we’ve had a full 90 mins performance.

I'm just happy to have football back.

I just want to see some good stuff because we've looked a bit turgid recently. The press has all but disappeared from our play style.
Got what I wanted. :)

Massive, massive improvement today. More urgency in that you can see players getting it out of their feet quicker, no repeated slow passing between the defence, Alderweireld's forward passing has been great, we're passing it back to Lloris a lot less, both Winks and Sissoko are playing more forward passes in that central area to bypass the wall in front of us, Aurier gives us a generally stronger outlook and there's cohesion between the front players.

This is the Spurs we love to see and Kane hasn't even gotten on the scoresheet. Also it's nice to see such a display that hasn't been overly reliant on the creativity of Eriksen as well.

Wtf, just seen the Wolves score, how are Chelsea smashing them. Def need to get a few more second half.
