To be fair it probably could’ve been 5-5! I think Hoffenheim were even more wasteful than we were. Most of the game’s stats favoured them but ultimately right now it’s safe to say we’ll take any win we can and be grateful for it. Two of our goals were really well taken and that’s what helped make the difference I’d say, Maddison’s opener and Son’s second were genuine pieces of quality, our games are far from pretty but if we can find more moments like that it’ll be most welcome. Kramaric gave an interview a week ago and said “it’s been one **** season” to the reporter after Hoffenheim got battered by Bayern, I think we know how he feels and thankfully last night we probably played the exact type of side we needed, Dr Hoffenheim had the remedy for Dr Tottenham that’s for sure. Hopefully his old club, Leicester, will have the same remedy on the weekend!
Davies made a total of 17 clearances last night, more than any player in any matchday this season. Bentancur won possession 13 times last night, more than any player in matchday 7. Some grafting there by two players who’ve only just returned.
