Two takeaways from a right good pre-season friendly at Tynecastle as the Premier League giants eventually ran out comfortable winners. But only after Shankland had shown he's as clinical as ever.
Ex-Celtic boss Postecoglou brought a team worth hundreds of millions to the capital and it showed at times as they kept the ball for fun.
Not quite at its fine-tuned best. But Spurs were still too hot for a Hearts side that put up a fight only to be undone by a team who finished fifth in the megabucks EPL just two months ago.
No disgrace in that, especially in a friendly from which the Jambos can take much heart.
But when the likes of James Maddison, Heung-Min Son and Brennan Johnson - three players who cost over £100million combined - turn it on there's little anyone can do.
That's the problem with glamour friendlies against Premier League opposition.
