Son Heung-min and Harry Kane took the headlines once again on Sunday as they fired Tottenham Hotspur to another win.

They’re Tottenham’s main two threats, but that doesn’t mean stopping them is easy, and Arsenal found that out once again.

Kane set up Son to make it 1-0, and it was no great surprise when Son set up Kane for 2-0 before the break as Spurs ran out winners.

So many other players impressed too, and left back Sergio Reguilon turned in yet another strong performance.

The defender has been outstanding since joining from Real Madrid in September, and shackled Willian with a fine display on Sunday.

During the Sky Sports coverage of the game, pundit Gary Neville praised Reguilon after just 18 minutes having been impressed with his early work at Spurs.

Neville admitted that he likes the Spaniard a lot, praising him for his energy, pace and aggression whilst noting how dangerous he is going forward.

“I like him,” said Neville. “Loads of energy, quick to the ball, aggressive in his defending and he flies forward at great pace,” he added.

That truly makes him ideal for Spurs; he’s solid enough defensively for Jose Mourinho to not worry about him, whilst he can also overlap Son with the space he creates from drifting inside – and Tottenham fans would likely agree with Neville’s assistant.
