One player caught the eye of many Spurs fans in the first-half vs Motherwell.
That player was Djed Spence who is being given his first real opportunity since joining the club.
The right-back has played just 28 minutes for Tottenham this season and he will be hoping for more opportunities.

Djed Spence catches the eye vs Motherwell
Wearing the number 7 shirt, Spence put together a strong performance in the right wing-back spot.
The defender was heavily involved in the first-half and produced some nice moves.
Spence managed to regularly get into good attacking positions down the right side and combined well with Dejan Kulusevski
However, he couldn’t squeeze his effort past the Motherwell goalkeeper.
He once again came close to scoring after the half-hour mark as he found himself in a great position in the box but failed to guide home his header.
But following a really bright half from the 22-year-old, Spurs fans have taken to social media to praise him.
Spurs fans react to Djed Spence’s performance vs Motherwell
Bright start from Djed Spence down the right. He shows some lovely footwork at times and he’s got that pace. Linking up well with Dejan Kulusevski. https://t.co/S0xIgXNi3c

Djed Spence involved in everything. Sends a header back across the Motherwell box that Harvey White just can’t reach and then Kulusevski puts the wing-back through on goal with a great ball but the keeper denies him as he tries to dink a shot over him. https://t.co/S0xIgY5rhk

Only a friendly but Spence looks the brightest of our players out there. Would be criminal if he didn’t get a run of games going into this half of the season especially considering the performances of our other right wing backs.
