Tottenham Hotspur have entered a rut following three successive defeats, and arguably their chances of silverware this season will hinge on Wednesday’s FA Cup tie.
Jose Mourinho’s side are now five points from breaking into the top four in the Premier League and face a mountain to climb in the Champions League after handing RB Leipzig a valuable away goal.
Norwich City awaits tomorrow evening.
Ahead of the fixture, attacking midfielder Giovani Lo Celso tweeted out some words of encouragement, which has sparked a mass reaction from sections of the Spurs faithful.
Fans were claiming he was their Player of the Season whilst others believe he’s the only one in the squad who isn’t giving up.
Here’s what has been said…
The Argentina playmaker was labelled a “prince” as well as a “king” while one supporter praised his “brilliant commitment” in tracking back to win the ball and hoped that it would rub off on his other teammates.

Another fan believes Lo Celso will become a star at Spurs. He was even described as “one of few shining lights” in the current squad.
It has led to some lauding the 23-year-old as their Player of the Year – so far.
This sort of attitude has sparked question marks over those around him – one suggested that he tell Tanguy Ndombele to get his act together as he was a “disgrace” on Sunday against Wolves.
Another stated that Lo Celso was the only player giving his all for the team and that he needed to tell the defence to not give up.
There was even a lofty comparison made to Lionel Messi, suggesting that the Spurs superstar was a better player than the five-time Balon d’Or winner.
While another fan claimed that Lo Celso and Steven Bergwijn were the “only ballers” in the squad at the minute.
