Tottenham fans have taken to Twitter to rave about the performance of Davinson Sanchez in their team’s 2-0 Premier League win against Huddersfield at Wembley on Saturday.
Two Son Heung-Mins goals, one in either half, secured the three points for Spurs as they climbed into third in the table ahead of Liverpool’s 5.30pm kick-off against Newcastle United.
It was all sweetness and light for the home support after Mauricio Pochettino had made nine changes from the side that beat League One minnows Rochdale 6-1 in midweek.
Sanchez was one of those reinstated in the starting XI as he lined up in the centre of defence alongside fit-again Jan Vertonghen, who had missed the previous two matches with an ankle injury.
It was the 32nd appearance of the campaign for the Colombia international, 21, as he started his 11th Premier League match on the trot.

Tottenham fans hailed the club-record signing for a commanding performance at the back in which he was “awesome” and “just makes it all look so easy”.

Our team is ridiculously deep. As awesome as it will be to have Toby back, Davinson Sanchez has played really, really well. #COYS #THFC

Some of the one-touch build up play was really good today, seems like we are stepping up another level. With the solid core of Dier, Dembele, Sanchez and Jan we don’t look like conceding and with Kane, Dele, Eriksen and Son we can create chances at will.
