Tottenham have suffered injuries to the majority of their playing staff this season, and Antonin Kinsky being the only signing this month screams of indecision by Levy. There have been links to Man United’s Alejandro Garnacho, and PSG’s Milan Skriniar, but the latter has now joined Fenerbahce and the Garnacho links have disappeared.

Jamie Vardy levelled within seconds of the restart from Bobby De Cordova Reid’s cross and moments later Bilal El Khannouss strode forward and finished from the edge of the box. Spurs had chances to level, with Pedro Porro’s free-kick striking the crossbar, but could not find a way back into the game.
