Even Arsenal pundits are praising Spurs
Doesn't it feel good once again to wake up on a Sunday morning having watched an emphatic performance and sitting second in the league.
The doom and gloom merchants and knee-jerk reactionist slating us earlier in the season must surely now be history. All the TV pundits are praising us, even the Arsenal ones.
Ian Wright picked out Danny Rose for mention on Match of the Day.
“Rose, especially at home, is unbelievable. Nacer Chadli had the thankless task of dealing with Danny Rose, arguably one of the best left-backs in Europe at the moment. Chadli couldn’t get anywhere near him.
“Once you’ve got the insurance of Wanyama and Dembele in there, Danny Rose can just go forward and play. They [Rose and Kyle Walker] were absolutely brilliant today. They were really, really good.”
The normally very biased Alan Smith was full of praise in commentary suggesting you could name the whole side as having a 9 out of 10 games, although mentioning Kane, Alli, Rose, Walker, Wanyama and Dembele.
Thiery Henry talked out the three at the back system suiting the players we have and again giving special mention to Wanyama, Rose and Walker.

Whether or not you manage to stay along for the ride is not something I'm prepared to predict ATM.
With Wenger at the helm you've done very well over the years, not to mention improving your style of football unrecognisably. I doubt he'll be there much longer though, and many of your fans will continue to be demanding returns to the glory years when the club need to be rebuilding. That …
