Simon Thomas

And the interesting thing about Kane getting that hat-trick is not just what it means for Tottenham.

In terms of the league table, they closed four points behind Chelsea.

Chelsea playing later today.

But keeping the Chelsea thing going, given he had ten matches out, of course, not all Premier League, he's now right on Costa's heels.

And everything going on with him...

He could be heading for that golden boot again.

Look, any team are going to miss those kind of players, but they would be an immense miss, would they not, if they got injured for any long term?

But if you're going to be more than there or thereabouts, they need to be fit and firing.

Mauricio, congratulations.

So it doesn't sound good about Vertonghen.

We'll talk about the potential impact on Spurs and in particular how they shape up in just a while.

But Thierry, as we look at the run they've got coming up, next up it is Manchester City.

And the way they've dispatched West Brom, when you look at how the likes of Chelsea and Arsenal struggled to get past this West Brom side, what kind of confidence and form do they take into that game?

They were title contenders last season, right up until near the end when they met West Brom.

Are they looking the same again?

Can they play this system without Vertonghen, with the surety that they have done today and against Chelsea 10 days ago?

Didn't sound positive from what Pochettino was saying.

Ben Davies came on as substitute.

He has played in a back three for Wales before.

Is he adequate enough cover for Tom Brady?
