How well can you remember Spurs' season so far? 1. Who is Spurs' top scorer in all competitions so far this season?

He continued: “He had to adapt in the last two games because he’s now playing with Alex Tettey who plays a deeper role, he has to drive the game forward now and was composed to the task. It is no coincidence that Jose Mourinho says he has potential to be Tottenham’s skipper one day.”
