Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Mousa Dembele has had a stuttered season so far, mainly due to injuries.

The 30-year-old has been restricted to just 10 Premier League starts, but has come off the bench in a further six fixtures.

On Saturday in the late kickoff against Everton at Wembley, the Belgium international was handed a place in Mauricio Pochettino's first XI.

Dembele operated in the middle of the park with Eric Dier and he put on an impressive display.

The midfielder dominated the area and pulled the strings as Spurs ran out 4-0 winners at their temporary home.

Harry Kane is likely to get the headlines as he reached another milestone by breaking Teddy Sheringham's Tottenham record of 97 goals by scoring twice against Everton.

Son Heung-min was the man to open the scoring, while Christian Eriksen topped it off with the team's fourth goal in the 82nd minute.

The Twitter world were understandably raving about Kane's achievement, but many Tottenham fans also praised the performance of Dembele.
