Comments:
This was Nuno Espírito Santo's first game as Tottenham Hotspur manager. Including caretakers, Andre Villas-Boas now remained as the only one of their last seven managers not to win his first Premier League game in charge. SON Heung-Min had now only scored more goals against Southampton (11) than he had against Manchester City (seven) in all competitions for Spurs. Captain Hugo Lloris had now equalled Darren Anderton's club record of 299 apperanaces in the Premier League.0 Manchester City
