Alderweireld – 7
Ever one to be a follower of fashion, I might have followed the current predilection for anointing centre backs and voted Toby our player of the season. Granted I don’t believe he’s ever been Spurs through and through, but he was the outstanding defender in a season where goalkeeper and full backs came under scrutiny. This was only our second draw and much of that has been to due with his composure and imperious control. Faultless again today? He’s got three good years at the top in him, though £25,000,000 for a thirty-one year old is an acceptable return.
The Tottenham Hotspur players and backroom staff show their thanks to the supporters in their customary lap of appreciation around the pitch at the new stadium following the 2-2 draw against Everton this afternoon.
Among the players who ventured onto the turf was Harry Kane, who was accompanied by his fiance Kate and their two children. It was certainly great to see the people behind the Spurs stars also being recognised for their unsung efforts.
Spurs will now look to re-focus ahead of the Champions League final against Liverpool in Madrid on June 1st.
