In case you hadn’t heard, Tottenham’s pre-season campaign got off to a winning start with a 4-1 victory over AS Roma in America.
Fernando Llorente and Lucas Moura both bagged braces before half-time to give Spurs a convincing lead at the break, an advantage they held onto until the end.
Moura was particularly impressive – you can watch his individual highlights here.
But perhaps the most unexpected performer was young midfielder Luke Amos.
The 21-year-old took advantage of the absence of Tottenham’s World Cup stars and put in a fine display in the middle of the park.

Its time to promote academy players instead of buying. We have a successful crop waiting on the sidelines & this will ensure a positive chain of production from the academy. D team stability will improve these players tremendously. D management should shift away from flops & get going positively for the sake of progression. Dont stick onto them & hope that they improve & could be sold at a premium to recoup d loss. Even top managers like Pep n Jose made errors n realised that certain players r just unsuitable n shipped them out to improve the team. BTW Gazanigga is better than Vorm anytime. He gives more confidence to the team n covers his goal well. Vorm seldom have clean sheets… sorry to say but just NOT gud enough. Aurier.. unless he improves, is a horrible defender who is always out of position, likes to pull players n commits unnecessary fouls. Some may think its justified for certain players not to play but how can they improve by sitting on the bench always. Food for thought.. COYS
Luke amor seems to be playing Luka Modric. Am i right?
Looks like it Bob! Maybe we’ll see more of the same in the Barca friendly.
