Christian Eriksen struggles but Victor Wanyama strikes for Tottenham

Tottenham started their home campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 victory against Crystal Palace on Saturday. It seemed they were going to be left ruing a number of near misses -- most notably a fluffed chance from Vincent Janssen in the second half -- but the club's other summer signing, Victor Wanyama, scored on his home debut, heading home in the 82nd minute to secure all three points.

Positives

Wanyama enjoyed a perfect first outing at White Hart Lane, while Janssen and Harry Kane looked like they could form an effective partnership, with the latter maintaining a goal threat despite dropping into a deeper No.
