Tottenham Hotspur arrested a slide of three consecutive losses in all competitions after a 2-1 win over Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday.
Goals from Harry Kane and Erik Lamela sent us on our way to an easy win before Anthony Knockaert pulled one back to make things nervous at the end.
Spurs held on for the crucial three points as we remained six points off the top of the table. But there was one surprise selection as Paulo Gazzaniga started in place of Michel Vorm.
The Dutch keeper has struggled between the sticks but our third-choice keeper did a decent job.
With Hugo Lloris still out with an injury, we might see more of the 26-year-old Argentine between the sticks.
Our next clash is against Watford in the Carabao Cup before we face Huddersfield Town at the weekend, and a few fans wanted Gazzaniga to stay in goal.
Well played today, Gazza. Hope you start our remaining games until Hugo is fully fit again.

I apologise for spending the whole ninety minutes shamelessly objectifying you.

@GazzanigaPaulo 👍💪Paulo, well done today. You gave a commanding display in the penalty box. You marshalled the defence well. You’re a much better #goalkeeper than Vorm. You deserve to be Lloris’ understudy. You deserve a lot more game-time. Show my tweet to Mauricio Pochettino. pic.twitter.com/J9i8y9bcT9

Well done you’ve kept us in the game. Hope this man plays more, or even better put him down as our 2nd choice keeper. 😊
