Tottenham Hotspur got back to winning ways this afternoon as they beat Sheffield United 3-1 away at Bramall Lane.

Spurs came into the game with just one win in their last six Premier League games, and needed a response after a disappointing 1-1 home draw with Fulham.

They took an early lead though as Serge Aurier headed home a Son Heung-min corner, and Harry Kane then fired home the second before the break.

David McGoldrick did pull one back for the Blades, but Tanguy Ndombele produced a nonchalant finish to hook the ball over Aaron Ramsdale to give Spurs a 3-1 win.

Tottenham fared well in a 3-4-3 system today, with wing backs Aurier and Sergio Reguilon both impressing in the victory.

Yes, Aurier got himself on the scoresheet, but Reguilon produced an exciting performance down the left flank.

Fans took to Twitter to praise Jose Mourinho’s summer signing from Real Madrid, suggesting that he was ‘world class’ against Sheffield United today.

Others felt that Reguilon’s pace was somewhat Gareth Bale-like, adding that he was ‘unreal’ and ‘awesome’.
