Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter couldn’t stop themselves from drooling over Giovani Lo Celso who was simply superb during the FA Cup fourth-round against Southampton at St Mary’s on Saturday.
Spurs managed a 1-1 draw against the Saints in a pulsating game that was high on quality from both sides. However, it was the Argentine midfielder who stole the show.
Lo Celso drove from midfield and was involved in the build-up to the goal scored by Son Heung-Min. His overall energy, dynamism and brilliance were on a different level.
The 23-year-old, who is on loan from Real Betis, has struggled initially at Spurs but is now playing a prominent role under Jose Mourinho.
