Many Tottenham Hotspur supporters have flocked to a tweet by Giovani Lo Celso in which he posted about the club’s latest fixture. Spurs earned their first victory in eight games against David Moyes’ West Ham United and Lo Celso played the entire 90 minutes in the heart of Jose Mourinho’s midfield.
The Lilywhites won 2-0 thanks to an own goal from Tomas Soucek and Harry Kane’s strike in the dying stages of the match (as per BBC Sport). Lo Celso, in his tweet, shared some images of himself in action with the caption: ‘What a performance team. Come on you Spurs’.
Here is how a sample of how the club’s supporters have responded to the post.

Do you believe Lo Celso is Spurs' best midfielder currently?
Yes
No
The Argentine midfielder earned an impressive performance rating of 7.6/10 according to WhoScored.com. Only West Ham United’s Declan Rice earned a better rating than the 24-year-old, meaning Lo Celso was Spurs joint best performer alongside Eric Dier. Fans continued to sing his praises in the replies.
Great man of the match display from you Giovani. Impressive. ?

The Spurs midfielder arrived at the club from Real Betis at the start of this season but the two clubs have agreed his permanent transfer ahead of the summer window in a deal reportedly worth £28.8m (via Transfermarkt.co.uk). Judging by the nature of the above replies, it seems he is well on his way to becoming a fan favourite at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
