Spurs keep on Arsenal’s heels as battle for fourth spot hots up via IrishTimesSport
will see this victory as progress: weary but persistent opponents held at arm’s length, successive league wins for the first time since early December and enough vigour in attack to suggest that Tottenham have no intention of letting Arsenal out of their sights any time soon.
In truth a tired West Ham could have few complaints about Spurs going above them. David Moyes’s starting approach was too passive and his side never looked capable of containing Kane, who forced Kurt Zouma’s own goal and made both of Son’s strikes. Yet there have been signs of promise. Take the recent clobbering of Everton, who were picked apart with devastating ease. There was a sense of something falling into place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium that night and there was a similar feeling by the 24th minute of this London derby, with Spurs in complete control and West Ham starting to fear the worst after falling two goals behind without offering much in the way of resistance.
