Tottenham responded confidently after their defeat against Manchester United on Sunday by comfortably dispatching Hull City 3-0 at White Hart Lane.
Christian Eriksen scored twice in another impressive individual performance and then, when the Dane's free kick was palmed onto the woodwork, Victor Wanyama pounced to add gloss to the scoreline.
Spurs remain sandwiched between the two Manchester clubs, who also won on the same evening, so little has changed in that regard -- but the north Londoners are now only four points behind third-placed Arsenal.
Positives
Mauricio Pochettino played with three central defenders and wing-backs to give his side more width after their disappointing display at Old Trafford, and it worked -- each of the full-backs set up a goal for Eriksen, whose own form is cause for optimism.
