Spurs fans have been reacting to a tweet from Japhet Tanganga after the club wished him a Happy 21st Birthday earlier this week.
The club posted on Tuesday this week to wish the defender a Happy Birthday, which he then quoted on his own Twitter page. The youngster has become a regular in Jose Mourinho’s side in recent months; having now made 11 appearances in all competitions for the North London side.
The academy graduate was handed his Premier League debut in the 1-0 defeat against Liverpool in January and after an impressive performance; in which he earned a 7.38 rating, he has continued to feature for the Lilywhites. Five more appearances in the Premier League have seen the defender average a 7.00 rating, which is impressive considering this is his first real experience of senior football.
Can Tanganga become a Spurs legend?
Yes

These Spurs fans were quick to wish Tanganga a Happy Birthday and clearly feel that the 21-year-old has a big future with the North London club.
What do we think?
It is good to see these Spurs fans so supportive of their young talent, despite his questionable performance in Spurs’ last game against RB Leipzig, where he earned a disappointing 5.63 rating for his performance.
