Jose Mourinho was forced to summon his A-listers from the bench to squeeze past Championship strugglers Wycombe.
Spurs dominated the second half at Adams Park but wasted a host of chances and were staring at the prospect of extra-time when Harry Winks gave them the lead with a delicious curling shot.
Within seconds, Tanguy Ndombele rolled in a third and then added a fourth and the scoreline acquired a degree of comfort at odds with most of the this Fourth Round tie.
Wycombe stunned Mourinho’s team in the first half, stormed into the lead through Fred Onyedinma.
