First half some good saves from Bernd but not many chances for Tottenham. He kept us in the game. Every single week the same. Gave a lot of danger for opponent as moved it very well.

"It was good to see at least we fought until the end," he said. We have Fraser (Forster) that sometimes he made a fantastic save to him in the training session and sometimes he is struggling to score but this is a period. I know they are going to score many goals."

Here are the main talking points following Tottenham's 2-1 victory over Fulham in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Impressive in the first half, the player really stepped it up after the break and was unlucky not to find the net himself when Leno stopped his low drive from finding the bottom corner. He didn't disappoint at all in his 90 minutes on the pitch and the only thing that was missing from his performance was a goal. Delivering one of his best performances in a Tottenham shirt, the England U21 international made life incredibly difficult for his former club with run after run down the left flank. You couldn't tell from his performance that he is lacking in confidence as he looked incredibly sharp and caused Fulham a host of problems with his pace and trickery. It was a really solid full debut from the Barcelona loanee and he has handed his boss a very touch selection headache in the process. The passion and emotion was there for all to see after he scored and it won't be the last time we see that at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium over the coming years. As was the case with Richarlison mentioned above, the only thing missing from his performance was a goal. They give us a lot of quality with the ball and a lot of danger for the opponent because they moved very well and yeah, I am really pleased for our performance today." Given the amount of missed chances that Conte pointed out in his post-match press conference, one team is going to be in for it over the coming weeks when everything comes together and Spurs bury their opportunities. He was then to go even closer not long after as Kane produced a sublime ball to pick out his run and it resulted in the 30-year-old striking the crossbar from close range. Unfortunate to see a Richarlison goal disallowed in the dying minutes, the 2-1 full-time scoreline maybe didn't reflect the balance of play, with Tottenham producing their best display since the opening day and on another they would have scored three or four. [Ryan Sessegnon](https://www.football.london/all-about/ryan-sessegnon) to utilise his pace and nip in to stop Andreas Pereira getting his shot away inside the first three minutes, Tottenham burst into life after that and controlled proceedings.
