Jamie O’Hara has lavished praise on Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg for his latest Tottenham Hotspur performance.
The Lilywhites beat Eintracht Frankfurt 3-2 in the Champions League last night.
Son Heung-min was the star of the show for Tottenham by scoring twice in the narrow victory.
But O’Hara, writing on Twitter, was certainly most impressed by the Denmark international, a £15 million signing by the Lilywhites in 2020.
Here’s what he posted:
According to WhoScored, it certainly was an excellent perfromance from the former Southampton midfielder.
Hojbjerg managed three interceptions, two clearances and clocked a passing percentage of 87.
Going forward, there wasn’t a lot for Hojbjerg to do, but thankfully he didn’t need to with Antonio Conte’s outfit scoring three nonetheless – including a penalty from Harry Kane, his first Champions League goal of the campaign.
Hojbjerg has been an animal this season, genuinely coming on a level under Conte in comparison to Jose Mourinho and Nuno Espirito Santo.
And from a Spurs perspective, long may it last.
