If Leicester City are the sensation of the season so far, Spurs are emerging as surprise No2. This win – far more emphatic than the scoreline suggests – added to the quietly spoken suspicion that the team that now stands second in the table could yet finish on top. There is still a long way to go, and Spurs have a couple of cup competitions to navigate as well as the Premier League, but teams will have to excel to amass more points in the campaign than Mauricio Pochettino’s men.
