Tottenham delivered a resounding 4-1 victory against West Ham, bouncing back impressively from their pre-international break defeat to Brighton. The squad clicked perfectly into Ange Postecoglou’s tactical system, much to the delight of the Lilywhites faithful. Postecoglou believes that one of Spurs’ standout players had their best performance in a Tottenham shirt during the win over the Hammers.

Brennan Johnson has enjoyed a remarkable start to his season, with the £70,000-per-week star shining brightly. He has scored six goals in 11 games, showcasing his phenomenal form, including a scoring streak leading up to today’s win.

West Ham initially led through Mohamed Kudus, but a strong second-half comeback allowed Ange Postecoglou to secure his first major London derby win. Goals from Dejan Kulusevski, Heung-min Son, Yves Bissouma, and an own goal by Alphonse Areola clinched a vital three points for Tottenham. Postecoglou praised one of his players for their strong performance, which finally translated into a positive result.

Brennan Johnson has his best game in the white Blue shirt

Ange Postecoglou believes that Brennan Johnson delivered his best performance in a Spurs shirt against West Ham, despite his goal-scoring streak ending. Although Johnson didn’t score for the first time in seven matches, his overall display in the 4-1 victory greatly impressed the Tottenham manager. The 59-year-old highlighted Johnson’s work rate in both attacking and defensive phases as key to securing the three points.

“I mentioned it to the lads, I know Brennan Johnson didn’t score today but I thought that was his best performance for us with the amount of work he did to help out Pedro and help out the team in a defensive capacity and still be a threat going the other way.”
