After all the uncertainty surrounding the club and its best players during the summer transfer window, a 4-0 thrashing against Crystal Palace in the Premier League must feel good for Tottenham.

Mauricio Pochettino publicly admitted the transfer talk had been distracting his players, and reports suggested he brought his players in for a team meeting to help re-focus their minds. And boy did that work out superbly.

The Lilywhites were on fire on Saturday, as a blistering first-half performance saw them go four goals up before the break. Whilst Son Heung-min may have stolen all the plaudits with an impressive brace, one man who also got on the score-sheet was Erik Lamela.

The Argentine hasn't exactly lit up north London since his arrival from AS Roma a few years ago, but his strike saw Tottenham fans flood to Twitter to hail the 27-year-old.

Many supporters leapt to Lamela's defence and wondered where all the "haters" had gone following his goal-scoring display.

Check out some of the reaction of Tottenham fans below:
