Tottenham picked up a vital 2-1 win over Newcastle United on the opening day.
The Londoners went ahead twice thanks to goals from Jan Vertonghen and Dele Alli. They managed to hold on to a lead despite a fightback from the Magpies.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side started without a number of key players like Trippier, Dembele, Son, Alderweireld for the game and they were expected to struggle against Newcastle.
However, Spurs seemed well in control of the game despite some moments of concern in the second half.
Tottenham failed to sign a single player this summer and that added to the negativity around the club as well.
