And while some were impressed with Wanyama’s showing against Brighton on Tuesday (Football.London awarded him a match rating eight out of 10, while Efan Ekoku – the former Premier League striker turned BBC Sport commentator – described him as ‘outstanding’), many Spurs fans are struggling to agree.
