SON WILL ALWAYS SHINE

Skipper puts Ange and Co five points clear

EVERYONE will put the clocks back one hour tonight - except Tottenham who will rewind about 63 years.

Joel Ward's freak own goal and skipper Son Heung-min sent Spurs five points clear at the Premier League summit.

And the last time they enjoyed such a gap at the top was in 196061, the year they won the Double.

To dare is to dream...

At some point folks will need to stop writing off Tottenham as title contenders because this wasn't just winning ugly. It was three points in a Halloween mask.

For 45 minutes at Selhurst Park, Ange Postecoglou's front runners were so anonymous as an attacking force they might have been reported to the police's missing persons bureau.

But the most efficient sides find a way to grind out a win when not at their best.
