After seeing his team lose three consecutive games, two without Harry Kane, Jose Mourinho decided to make some changes to his side ahead of the game against West Brom.
The Lilywhites welcomed Kane back to their starting Xi for the match, as he returned from injury to help them to an important win.
Kane’s goal and involvement in the second made him arguably the best player for Spurs in the match.
However, his inclusion in the team isn’t the only surprise that Mourinho pulled off as he also made changes to his team’s setup for the match.
He set his team up with a front four that saw Kane and Son Heung-min get supported by Lucas Moura and Erik Lamela, reckons Standard Sports’ Dan Kilpatrick.
It was a refreshingly new strategy, and it worked with the two new players working hard to give more problems to the Baggies.
Kilpatrick writes: “Kane was not the only Spurs player who made a positive a difference, as Mourinho’s set-up and selections offered an encouraging blueprint for his side’s potential recovery going forward.
“Kane returned to a new-look front four, with Erik Lamela and Moura coming in and Tanguy Ndombele dropping back to the double pivot – a role which suits the Frenchman’s skillset.
“Ndombele’s presence in a deeper midfield role enabled Spurs to progress possession into the final third with far more regularity than against Chelsea and Lamela was impressive at inside right. Lucas fully justified his inclusion with a 60-yard run for the second goal.”
