Tottenham Hotspur have endured a difficult run of form in recent weeks, losing three consecutive matches in all competitions for the first time during Mauricio Pochettino's reign.

A 2-1 defeat to Inter Milan on Tuesday evening has left the Lilywhites with plenty to do in a tough Champions League group that also includes La Liga champions Barcelona, raising the pressure on the north London outfit.

Plenty has been said in the past month following Spurs' failure to bring in a single signing during the summer transfer window but that did not stop speculation, with L'Equipe stating SC Amiens midfielder Tanguy Ndombele was a target.

Spurs reportedly failed with a bid in excess of £40m for the 21-year-old, who joined Lyon after a successful loan stint with the club and he has since caught the eye for the Ligue 1 giants in their superb Champions League win over Manchester City.

Ndombele earned plenty of plaudits on social media and we have gathered some of the best reactions to his performance below.
