Graham Roberts says three Tottenham players were truly ‘fantastic’ v West Ham

Tottenham Hotspur got back to winning ways in style on Saturday as they ran out 4-1 winners against a hapless West Ham United outfit in North London.

Spurs were eager to make amends for their shock loss at Brighton before the international brea🍸k, and they did so – after an initial scare.

Ange Postecoglou’s charges were fi🐎rst to concede in the match as Jarrod Bowen cut the ball back for Mohammed Kudus to hammer home on 18 minutes.

However, Tottenham soon found a way back into the game, with J⭕ames Maddison teeing up Dejan Kulusevski to⛎ equalise via both posts in the 36th minute.

Spurs added a second in the 53rd minute as Son Heung-min and Destiny Udogie comb🍌ined to set Yves Bissouma up for a neat finish, which ended up opening the floodgates.

Tottenham made it three just two minutes later as Jean-Clair Todibo accidentally put the ball into the back of his own net in a moment Michael Dawson called “comiꦆcal” on .

Then, in the 60th minute, the 🥂Spurs captain got the better of Todibo with some stepovers before bea𝓡ting Alphonse Areola at his near post to make it 4-1 to Spurs.

All in all, it was a great da꧂y at the office for Tott𓂃enham, and Spurs legend Graham Roberts loved what he saw.
