Tottenham's Vincent Janssen fails to make his mark despite big opportunity against Watford

This was Vincent Janssen’s seventh start in the Premier League this season. Against a Watford team with no defence, it was not his lucky number.

The striker played a pivotal part in Tottenham’s come-from-behind win in stoppage time at Swansea during the week. Here they needed no such heroics, with a straightforward 4-0 win.

Yet Janssen will head home from White Hart Lane wondering how he did not get a goal, having squandered several chances here, including one from three yards.
