    Everyone was fantastic but Perraud, JWP, Stuey and Broja really stood out for me. Perraud looks like he's adjusted to the physicality of the PL and we've got a cracking LB in the making.

    He looked a bit rusty against Swansea but since then he’s been brilliant.

    His movement was fantastic, just ghosted in behind the Spurs ballwatchers. The cross from Prowsey just perfect.

    That first half was off the scale good (aside from the finishing!). Some of the best football we've played in a very long time.

    I thought we were somewhat fortunate to win the second half - but we should have been so far ahead at HT, that the second half would have been an irrelevance.

    Win of the season.

    It was the anniversary of my wife and my meeting tonight, so we were out for dinner. It was NOT EASY. Let's just put it that way.

    Yes and regardless of Livramento’s progress I would hope to see Perraud and KWP as first choice fbs.

    Broja is a beast but he could have had a hat-trick tonight. Also there was a chance in first half when Adams was open in front of goal but Broja didn’t pass.

    Romeu looked absolutely quality again. Far better than Hojbjerg will ever be.

    I really don't know envy Ralph having to make that choice every week from here on in (given that I think he's made it pretty clear that he doesn't see Tino as an option further up the pitch).

    Probably the first time we've had three decent FBs since Poch had Clyne, Chambers and Shaw?

    I completely understand why Beckham got MOTM (we wouldn't have won it without him!). But Romeu was outstanding.
