What Tottenham players gave Harry Kane as Spurs dominated Fulham?

Tottenham entered today’s match as a club very much in need of some momentum. Fortunately for Spurs, Harry Kane decided to take matters into his own hands. He provided three terrific goals and single-handedly pushed his club into the next round of the FA Cup.

Fortunately for Mauricio Pochettino, there were more standouts in the match in his squad. Kane will get all of the headlines, but there are quite a few of his teammates who deserve plaudits.

In all honesty, Spurs could have won the match by more. Three was the absolute minimum that Tottenham should have scored given their plethora of chances. On another day, it could have been a truly ugly result for Fulham.

Without further delay, let’s get down to the business of evaluating each Spurs starter’s performance today. The vast majority will get good marks, but I will be particularly critical of one member of Pochettino’s starting XI.
